Weston Turville - St.Mary's - "Tapsell" lychgate
Image: © Rob Farrow Taken: 31 May 2014
This unusual lychgate is at the entrance to the grounds of St Mary's church in Weston Turville. It is of the "Tapsell" type which has a double width gate pivoted about a central pillar, and in this case counterbalanced by a weight to ease its operation. There is a small plaque on the gate stating that: "This Tapsell Lychgate was faithfully renovated by Don Billing 2004"
