Above is a second set of dadoes with images of a rose on opposite sides, a cross and crown, and a blank inset. Above the images are four columns. Inside of which is a statuette of a woman keeling in prayer. Then a tall column topped with an urn with a dove perched on top. Appropriately, Vogel is the German word for bird.
The only entrance to Bridge Street Cemetery is off Parsons Street. See additional coordinates below.
