English: He lies alone - in the cemetery of the Glanrhyd Hospital Rifleman C W Murphy lies in this quiet place. A soldier of the Monmouthshire Regiment who died in July 1918. The Glamorgan County Lunatic Asylum at Angelton, Bridgend, opened in November 1864 and has enjoyed a variety of names over the years - Glamorgan County Lunatic Asylum and Glamorgan County Mental Hospital before becoming the Glanrhyd Hospital.
Perhaps Rifleman Murphy was one of those who suffered what today we call Post traumatic stress syndrome - in those days, battle fatigue or stigmatised by being accused of cowardice. Whtever reason he lies here may he rest in peace.
