Interior of the chapel of rest, Ledbury cemetery
Rather stark, but quite light and airy.
Floor may be suffering from rising damp.
The cross was
"Donated by Mrs Audrey Hill
"In memory of her parents
Georde and Effie Audrey Mullet
(nee Holdings)"
Along the left side of the chapel near the roof are tiles reading:-
Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord for they will rest from their labours and their deeds will follow them" (Revelation 14:13)
Similarly on the right:-
"I am the resurrection and the life saith the Lord: he that believeth in Me though he were dead yet shall he live" (John 11: 25)
