One one of the Giants


This fellow is known as Sir Nicholas and is one of the Aldworth Giants he will be featuring in my next My Grave Place blog.

He rests in Aldworth Parish Church.

  1. Not heard of the Aldworth giants. How old is this tomb?

  2. He died in 1343 and was custodian of the Black Prince. I presume you live up in London so there are a lot of places out in the sticks you would not have heard of just like me even though I live out in them. I hated history at school now I love it.

  5. This is fascinating. Will try to catch your next post about him. I noticed your comment about hating history in school and now loving it. Same here, and I did have a good teacher. I think sometimes, we're just ready at certain times in our lives for "stuff" that may have seemed uninteresting previously.
