A tombstone in St Leonard's churchyard, Flamstead. It was raining when I took this photo and the light was not ideal. The memorial is to Mary, but I cannot make out the surname. I'll have to check the HMI volume. Given the size of the stone (small) and the style, it is probably late 17th/early 18th century.

This is the fourth in a line of five tombstones with skulls in the churchyard of St Leonard's, Flamstead. I hope to return to this one as it was in shade when I took the photo. Pentax K-3iii, SMC Pentax-FA 31mm Ltd.
