This old graveyard on the west side of Potholm Farm contains many fine old symbolic 18th century headstones and table tombs. This one dated 1747, displays emblems of mortality on the lower half with a skull, bones and an hourglass. A winged soul above is an emblem of immortality depicting the human soul arising to await the Day of Judgement.
