This tiny scrap of graffiti mentions Cedric Swinton Holland
Rear Admiral Cedric Swinton Holland was Admiral Superintendent in residence from 2nd September 1899 and superceded on completion of his period of duty.
The full name, although inscribed in nice characters, is hard to find among the numerous names and dates. The large date of 1902 coincides with the time he was superceded as Admiral Superintendent … but were either of the inscriptions written by the man himself?
There are references to him on the back wall of Commissioner’s House with his full names as well as just initials and surname. Another example is of M.E.Holland
