St Andrew's Old Church, Church Road.
You can see more gravestones and memorials over at this week's Taphophile Tragics.

I suspect, but obviously do not know, that they are still joyfully waiting.

Thanks for this contribution to Taphophile Tragics, Wibbo. I appreciation your post.; 31 May 2012 at 17:45
