Its beautiful. and old and special. I live in USA and in Maine, Massachusetts and only couple other early states of USA we have old ones to wander in too. Yet. none. as wonderful as the Bow. Even from my phone pics I can feel the people that are buried there. One knows their spirits are there and for many
generations.

I love statues, angels and all the carving in the stones.. I do not like cemeteries that are allll flat plaques THROWN in on ground. dome states here all their cemeteries. are just flat to ground plaques do they can mow!! NO ONE EVER STROLLS OR WANDERS THROUGH THEM and there are never benches to sit and think and gaze.

Now in Massachusetts the Mount Auburn cemetery has great walking paths, be
nches. to sit on and stroll..There are many famous buried there. In Boston they have marvelous. ancient graves and I once found the Real Hester Pryne’s. grave from The Scarlet Letter novel. !!

You bring us history and all the lives of people whom lived, loved and built England..I have many thanks. Many of your stories and photos make me cry. but i love
that. as one needs to see and see faces from long ago and think about their lives. We have it alll so easy now.They did not..but still smiled and laughed.

So thank you so much .

Debra

I still wouldn’t walk through one of them in the dark though!
