#MonumentMonday in the churchyard of St Mary's, Wargrave, Berkshire. This is the entrance to the Hannen Mausoleum, designed by Lutyens, 1906-7. 🧵
For the first time, the setting sun lit up the interior, and I dared to peep inside.

William Burges' tomb of Charles Spencer Ricketts at Kensal Green Cemetery was until recently reviled, once described as 'hunched like a porcupine, fattened to the point of obesity, its reptilian form is almost a parody of Early French'

Cowdray House & Titchfield Abbey share looks & history. The memorials of their owners, Anthony Browne & Thomas Wriothesley are stylistically very similar - no accident, their children married & produced the 3rd Earl of Southampton, Shakespeare’s patron

Rather a splendid memorial tablet. North wall of the chancel #StLawrenceStratford #Wiltshire . Mounted over a blocked C13 splay window and next to a trefoil piscina. Mouse loves the way the panelling has been shaped around these medieval details #MonumentMonday #MementoMoriMonday
