An inscribed brick, St Martin's churchyard, East Horsley (1)
The man who made this brick has signed it and dated it. I'm pretty sure I can read his Christian name, but I can't fully make out the surname. The date is perhaps the clearest part of the inscription, while the third line (of four) is unclear. Does he say where he made the brick? Or the day of the week?
I have made a second image available, showing the brick in an orientation that's easier to read: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5813040
The brick flanks a small opening in a wall - on the south side of the churchyard and not many paces to the east of the gazebo.

This is a rotated image, for the sake of legibility. The brick is shown in its natural orientation here: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5813034

East Horsley: churchyard and gazebo
The gazebo stands at the south-west corner of St Martin's churchyard, by the main village street. In terms of style and materials the little gazebo is a sort of microcosm of the whole eccentric Horsley Towers estate. Red brick, terracotta, and flint are to be found throughout the village and beyond:
Image Horse-shoe arches and machicolations are frequent motifs.
To my mind, the estate style belongs in the English folly tradition, and saves the village from looking altogether suburban. Ian Nairn - who compiled the Surrey volume of Pevsner's 'The Buildings of England' - failed to see the joke. And I find that sad.
