Hampstead Norreys


This week I return to visit Hampstead Norreys a village that is mentioned in the Doomsday Book. It is not the first time I have been here but this time I stopped off to get some photos of some chest tombs that had been restored since my last visit, I also got a few photos of the inside

    In 1984 we went to a churchyard in ?? Ireland with our kids (4, 6, 10). There were several above ground burial sites. Several were falling apart, showing the skeletal remains within. Oh boy, did our kids love that. I wonder if those still exist.

    I enjoy your site with its history and photos.

      Most Ihave seen here in the UK are just empty chambers, with the burial under them
