This mysterious number appeared! And one of our piles of debris there vanished. What was this about? Well, there are half a dozen piles of gravestones which have been removed from their original positions. No-one is sure why, happened a long time ago. We’ve been keeping some of the piles clear of foliage so that at least some stones may be read. We were told that a family member came by, on a walk, spotted one of their own family stones. One from the Council’s list of approved masons was instructed to come by, take the stone away to clean it, create a new cement foundation – ensuring it was level! – and re-erect the gravestone in its rightful place. And here it is. Happy ending! Well done, that family member.

Such a pity all those stones pulled on top of each other by the council so glad to hear a passer by noticed a family stone and got in touch, and now it’s stranding pride of place. It would be good to think more stones will get teamed to their rightful standing place. Or at least safely stood or flat front facing up so they could be read.
I know the volunteers try to turn some stones so the scripture can be read. Another great job by FofWC

There are a few such caches of stones which, in time, we will bring out and let them be seen. Hopefully at some point they will be put back in their rightful place.
