Having left our car beside a sign saying that the parking area (the only one in the village) is for visitors to the cemetery, we felt obliged to visit the cemetery when we returned from our walk. This was far from being a hardship, because as well as some interesting gravestones there is a bench which offered us this view while we relaxed in the sunshine with the second instalment of our picnic. (The three cars in view were all there when we first arrived, and still there when we left to go home, but we saw no-one else visiting the cemetery.) On the skyline is Fourman Hill, and our seven-mile walk had taken us over the shoulder of the hill past the scattered trees.
