...garden? I recently found an upright headstone in my garden. I would like to know if it is an actual grave. Short of excavation, how can I find out? Would a surveyor or landscape architect have ground radar or something?
Thanks everyone (: BTW, I'm in England (Surrey to be specific)

It might help to know more about the origins of the headstone...not sure if anyone can help with this bit, but here goes: The headstone appears to be metal, but I'm not sure. I decided not to disturb it too much and will probably be able to see more once I trim back the ivy. It has cemetery symbolism including pax and a figure (possibly a saint?). It's possible that the name is under the art (it's not entirely above ground). It's also possible that it's two sided, but a fence borders it to the back.
