The Anonymous Widower

St. Nicholas Church, Great Yarmouth

St. Nicholas in Great Yarmouth, is the largest parish church in England.  Sadly, it was closed when I arrived in the afternoon on the way back to the station, but I was still able to walk in the churchyard.

  2. Now had I known you were wandering around a graveyard in NOrfolk, I would have sent you a list of names to look out for!

    An odd question – what were the graves like. In some parts of Norfolk instead of a grave having the people in it interred one above the other, the people are interred side by side, so a family grave will cover a fairly large area. The reason for this is that the water table is so high. A good example is the Tipple family grave in Clenchwarton, near to Kings Lynn. They have a window in the church as well.
