Birds and their droppings!
I like the design of that top bit. Satisfies my need for symmetry.
Now there is a line there, beneath Margaret's details, that leads me to think she is not actually buried beneath this memorial. HOw sayest thoug? Where is this place 'Sneed Newbury'?
Yes, inscription says she's buried in Speen, Newbury -

Love that design on the top part of the headstone! It reminds me both of a ship's wheel and some ancient cross symbol!
I like the design of this one - though I had to twist my head around to read the circle inscription!
yes, thats a nice stone.
