This memorial to Robert Louis Stevenson takes the form of a sacred grove bounded by an ashlar wall on a half circle and by five silver birch trees (Betula pendula) across the diameter. At the foot of the tree trunk is a stone tree column base inscribed with R.L.S. and Stevenson's dates beneath (1850-1894). The site is a Stevenson sanctuary, an area for reflection that is half private and enclosed and half open to the world, just as are Stevenson's writings. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
