Found this under some brambles in the Sheffield General Cemetery that is being finally taken care of. This chap probably fought in the Crimean War (1853-1856).
I've always thought it rather ironic that the motto of a corps that deals with explosives would be 'UBIQUE' meaning 'everywhere'- a place they would have sent their enemies.
