beard and his bulk", and revered because of "his batsmanship". Frith added a view that even though Grace's records had been overtaken, "his pre-eminence" had not, and so Grace "remains the most famous cricketer of them all, the one who elevated the game in public esteem". He is buried at Beckenham Cemetery in Elmers End Road, Beckenham, Bromley, Kent. A Public House named after Dr. Grace was built next to the cemetery.
