Biographical Details	The firm flourished 1816-40, producing ‘heavy, unexciting monuments and tablets’ at their yard in Park Row. Gunnis considered the best to be the Brackenbury, a tablet with a relief sarcophagus, the Alcott, the Lindley, the Beckett and the Ramsden (3, 4, 5, 8). The Nichols tablet has a mourning female by an altar with an urn (2). Walsh & Dunbar may have been connected with another Leeds firm, Walsh & Lee. Literary References: Gunnis 1968, 412
