Description
Churchyards are a ubiquitous feature of the English landscape, with thousands of sites scattered across the country. These ancient burial grounds are not just places of quiet contemplation, but also hold a wealth of history and intrigue.
From the grandest mausolea to the humblest of stones and wooden markers, churchyards are a testament to the craftsmanship and creativity of our ancestors. The memorials that line their paths are a fascinating glimpse into the lives and customs of the past, with imagery and epitaphs that provide a tangible link to family history.
This book is part of the Britain's Heritage series, providing definitive introductions to the riches of Britain's past. It is the perfect way to get acquainted with churchyards in all their variety, and to explore the fascinating stories that lie beneath the grass.
