Old Cockpen Graveyard

I finally managed to locate this ancient (dating back to the 12th Century) graveyard today and have already promised myself a return visit. I took many pictures but this gravestone was the best on the day. It dates back to 1699 and features a very worn winged angel at the top, together with fronds and thick scrolls. The initials can just about still be discerned and read: WC and MB.
