There are probably only about five gravestones in the churchyard of All Saints with Holy Trinity that are earlier than 1700. As such, they take a bit of finding! I have only one example to share with you today. The stone is laid flat, forming part of the path around the perimeter of the church, thus it is very badly worn.
