Walking Through the Churchyard

While you are there, it is worth a detour through the churchyard. There are gravestones legible from the 18th century, and the thing that struck me was the number of younger deaths, below 30, and then there are those in 80's and 90's. It seems as if you were able to survive past your 40thbirthday, the chances were you might live to a ripe old age.
