The Old Priest's House - Fornham St. Martin
This old church and cemetery are adjacent to the Woolpack Pub. The information I found said this building was built in the 17th century! There are tombstones that are so old, you could not read the inscription on them. The oldest one that I could still read, the person died in 1779 and he was only 21 year old. That is a long time ago! It is was very interesting that there were a lot of young people buried there, young I mean 20's and 30's, that died in the early 1900's. Thank God for the modern medicine of today!
