St Mary's Hardwick

Not a commonly-visited settlement in my experience, but I had an hour to kill after dropping Kate off at a hairdressers in the village a few weeks ago, so I took a walk to St Mary’s with my camera fitted with my new wide-angle zoom lens.

The light was poor and the church locked, but an amble around the churchyard revealed several points of charming and poignant interest, with a number of sad, recent children’s graves..
