    Have you ever heard the one about how there are only two things that are certain to us? The first one being that we are all subject to some form of taxation and the second is that one day we WILL all die.

'Pity is for the living.

Envy is for the dead'

Mark TWAIN

THE CHURCHYARD

PARISH CHURCH OF ST STEPHEN ACOMB

THE STUDY.

Nestled in the shadow of the quaint St Stephen’s Parish Church in Acomb with its decoration of Tadcaster limestone, a wealth of stained glass and the fish topped weather vane perched upon the steeple – a beautifully tranquil churchyard awaits the curious visitor.

A passionate taphophile or grave hunter since my teenage years – St Stephen’s Churchyard remains a favourite of mine.

From coach builders, farmers, surgeons, soldiers, mathematicians, babes in arms, to genteel ladies, gentlemen and glaziers with their lives rich in detail and set in stone – many of their stories have yet to be revealed.

Why not walk awhile?
