Long Slow Distance

Cemetery snaps 6

On my fifth and penultimate day in the cemetery, I chanced upon this fine carved stone lintel, bearing the legend "George Harman Snr. Opened 1831, Closed 1882".

According to research, Mr Harman was a "Builder, surveyor, furnishing undertaker &c. & agent to the Liverpool & London & Globe Fire & Life Insurance Company, North Street."

I like the way the yew needles fill up the carved lettering.
