Inscription

"This stone is erected to
perpetuate the memory of
William Baker
of Barton in this Parish
Yeoman
who departed this life the
9th day of June 1851
Aged 64 years
Man like a flower springs in light
At morning pleasant the sight
At noon a blast cuts down the flower
And man decays in one short hour"
