That is a lovely shot. The graves look like slates, waiting to be read.

What a lovely image.

And they're all still fully legible- in spite of being exposed
to the harsh climate of the Pennines for 150 years.

Nice composition. Not very inviting, though, is it? even for a graveyard.

I dunno. Ailz and I were saying how we wouldn't mind having our ashes scattered there. The views are to die for (ahem).

Agreed on the view, but I don't much care for the boxy sarcophagi or the idea of being perched on a hilltop and scoured by the wind for all eternity. Then again, our family plot and my likely final resting place sits on a hilltop in a far colder climate, so seems I'm just being picky.

I like this. I like the name of the place, too. :)

I'm not sure where the name cames from. There's no mere and I don't think there were ever any friars.
