to the next picture in this set

The picture set this week comes from St Margaret's Churchyard in the Sussex village of Rottingdean, just along the coast from Brighton. St Margaret's is an old church, dating from the 13th century. It has a close association with the Victorian artist Edward Burne-Jones, whose ashes are in the churchyard and who also made some stained glass for the church. Interestingly, and quite why I do not know, there is a replica of St Margaret's in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park in California. The churchyard is a beautiful place, divided up by flint walls and containing the remains of famous and ordinary people in equal peace and tranquillity. The pictures in this set were all taken on a sunny spring day in March 2007.
