The railed monument left of the tower contains a statue of a recumbent lady. Us kids said it was the tomb of a woman who fell or jumped from the tower. Never did find out who it really was. Anyone else know?

RE: RE: Priory Church

Yes, I remember the lady in the church yard. I was always told she fell off the church. I always went to touch her face as I grew up but the last time I was there she had lost her head. I still have photos of her and my memories.
