Could you possibly give me some more information on what you were told about the entity?

I didn't know about that in the graveyard. My partner is a nurse, so he might find that interesting.

The gentleman restoring it live in an ancient campervan in the car park and he showed us round the interior yesterday; quite fascinating. The graveyard is interesting, and contains the grave of the famous pharmacologist James Black who developed beta blockers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01883607585614037587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406319356659344188.post-64260997801102205612015-06-03T09:42:18.372-07:002015-06-03T09:42:18.372-07:00I would /love/ to work on a chapel conversion, but...I would /love/ to work on a chapel conversion, but I don't think I would want to live in one; I think as an apostate I'd feel a bit weird even in a deconsecrated chapel - some part of me thinks a witch moving into what used to be a church is somehow not the best way to honour its previous use!

Also looking at some of the tags I think I will enjoy lots of your other posts. I'll add your blog to my RSS reader! Sad to see the building disused, a couple of the churches round here are on the market for house conversions for £90k but I think it would take a lot of money to make them home.Jessicahttp://pineau.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5406319356659344188.post-80018161321279467352015-02-10T10:49:12.281-08:002015-02-10T10:49:12.281-08:00It was built in stages from 1626 onwards, with a l...It was built in stages from 1626 onwards, with a lot of work done in the 19thC, and it has been unused since 1958. Most of it is mid 1800s.

I enjoyed the black and white photos because they gave the area more of a Gothic look, but the color photos were more effective in highlighting the condition of the grave markers. Can you know the approximate age of this chapel and cemetery? <br /><br />Nightwindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07148270720593016700noreply@blogger.com
