Unusual saddleback tower at StJames, Kinnersley. #Herefordshire Restored by G.F.Bodley in 19th century. He fell in love with Mina Reaveley from the “Castle” next door. They married & both lie in the churchyard. #MonumentsonMonday #Churches

Random headstones from Old Town church. Isles of Scilly Sir Harold Wilson's grave; a propeller but no name sadly; an ancient headstone from the 1700s and an angel

Kendal parish church
The sculpture is by John Flaxman (1755-1826) who worked as a modeller for Josiah Wedgwood’s pottery early on in his career. He then went on to earn a living sculpting grave monuments. I wonder what the story is with the young woman who drowned

Wigton Cemetery.
That monstrous monument is to a local JP. Not that he had a huge ego or anything. It’s about 4 x life size and towers over mere mortals
It does have a lovely statue of “justice” with the sword of truth and the scales of justice. But much too intrusive IMHO

#MonumentsOnMonday The monks of Strata Florida built their abbey church around an ancient holy well and archaeological excavation suggests that this was a sacred place long before the Cistercians arrived. Learn more on our Youtube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysbk...
