[hisimp-chat] Share Your memories, see The Village Society Records and chat with the Artists Thursday 21st Aug

[Philip Howarth]

Hi Pene,

My memories don't go back far enough (almost as far as todays lunch, these
days!).

Probably not even slightly what is being looked for, but the Elizabeth
Woodcock story
http://www.hisimp.net/history/imphist3.htm
is unusual and very local. If nothing else - could we get the, essentially
lost, memorial re-positioned as to be visible from a passing bus or cycle,
perhaps?

Other favourite stories which always go down well with visitors are the
blacksmith's grave and the spoof gravestone

Cheers

    Philip
