Gravestone at St Lawrence Church, Nettleden

 

Probably the oldest surviving gravestone in the churchyard. As with many other stones of this age the heavy carving has survived well but the lettering is less clear - and in this case the name of the deceased has disappeared. At the time this was erected the majority of burials would have been marked with grave boards which would not have survived.

The memorials have been indexed by the Hertfordshire Family History Society
