Graffiti
At what point does graffiti become history worth preserving ? This looks like 17th & 18th century work on the medieval south door of All Saints' church.

Inverted Scratch dial, All saints' church, Syerston
Grade II listed
The church dates from the 13th century onwards, and was restored in 1896.
It has a tower, aisleless nave and chancel under a single roof, with a south porch. The tower dates from the 13th century with a 19th-century embattled parapet. The nave and chancel are probably 14th century and were rebuilt in 1896 in memory of G.H.Fillingham at the expense of his widow.
There is a carved oak pulpit dated 1636 with tester, the font is 14th century octagonal decorated with blind tracery.
The porch was repaired in 1724.
Externally there are two scratch dials on the south wall of the church, and one which appears to be reset as it is upside down.

Graffiti in the porch
Pevsner records the porch as having been rebuilt in 1729, but clearly older material was retained, as two of these inscriptions are dated 1689 (WM) and 1690 (RM) respectively. The time it would have taken to carve these initials suggests that they might have had some official approval; maybe they were churchwardens?
