How long have the gravestones been there? They appear to be freshly painted, but the moss and lichen on them hasn't been disturbed.
Thistledown(Rex) would know far better than me, but I think the stones were put there in early Victorian times, so about 100 years after the battle.The paint, a good idea by the way, is a newish thing and I don't recall seeing it the last time I visited some years ago.
