More about this scene
The battlements are under repair, hence the flat top to the tower. The tower is covered with flushwork symbols for saints, especially Mary and Edmund, and has an inscription commemorating William Maundevyl (d1503). The end of the aisle is blocked by the monument of Sir Robert Gardener (d1620), who built the almshouses behind us. The gravestone under the window, dated 1695, has skeletons holding spades, surrounded by bones.
