Ware tombstone (4)

07 Jan 2024 2 18
A tombstone from the graveyard of St Mary the Virgin, Ware. This is an unusual stone for Hertfordshire with 3D skulls rather than just a relief carving. This style is more common outside the county. Sadly the inscription was too worn for me to read. Pentax K-3iii, SMC Pentax-FA 31mm f/1.8 Ltd
