Old Tombstone Marker
This large tombstone in the graveyard of Hyde Chapel predates the current building, built in 1846.
It is present in a picture of the 1767 chapel. Its position and that of the tree is what enables historians to map out the whereabouts of the previous building.

Gerald, re your comment Chez Louis, it's getting a bit crowded on the balcony, but please do join us! You most assuredly will be welcome!
how quaint
(thanks for clarifying the snow/rain business)
I love all your historic posts and this is another good one!!
Thanks for visiting Rabaul DP and your comments - most appreciated. Am late visiting this weekend due to visitors, and internet & power problems!!!
I image that the deceased had been a person of some note, judging by the size of the tombstone.
