"In the public cemetery in Greenock", I think. Presumably one run by the local council, but you'll need someone else to give you a more precise ID.

looks like simply "in Cæmeterio publico".   presumably meaning not one belonging to the church.
Rutter, Sampson, Swinerd, Head, Redman in Kent.  Others in Cheshire, Manchester, Glos/War/Worcs.

 The notification does say public cemetery. Here is the website  to contact.   Greenock cemetery comes under the local govt heading of Inverclyde. http://www.inverclyde.gov.uk/education-and-learning/libraries/local-and-family-history/family-history/intimations

I would also suggest you post on the Scotland board under Renfrewshire. Local rootschatters are very helpful and someone may be able to locate the grave and take a photo if there is a memorial.
