Rothwell, The Charnel House In The Church Crypt c.1955
Photo ref:

More about this scene
Frith's photographer takes us down into the crypt of Holy Trinity church, discovered by an 18th-century gravedigger when the aisle floor collapsed beneath him. In it he found a vaulted 13th-century ossuary, or charnel house, containing the bones from over 1500 human skeletons from the graveyard. They remain there, neatly stacked.
