Now at some point everyone takes a series of pictures of our graveyard.
I have taken many over the years, but these will be the first I think.
It will have been in 1981 and the graveyard had just had its makeover which involved taking away most of the headstones, and landscaping the area.
The very observant will notice that I have dated the pictures wrongly, but then I just took them.
The earliest burials inside the church date from the late 18th century and a hundred years later the graveyard was closed to all but those who had family already buried there.
