An interesting piece on The Grave of Lady Anne Grimston has appeared on Journal of the Bizarre.

As I live really quite nearby (in Welwyn Garden City) I popped along there today and got some nice new pictures.
It was a mild New Years Day with little wind, slightly overcast yet bright, with a few ramblers around in the nearby lanes.
One chap walking his dog who (now this is something I haven't seen in years), when his dog pulled on the lead and barked at my van as I drove past, he kicked the dog up the backside.
As you approach the Church of St Peter there is a small turning circle at the end of the drive but very little space to park.
The Grave is off to the left and is quite obvious, however there are no markings to give any indication that's who it is. Maybe a little noticeboard or something would be nice, as anyone passing would be oblivious to the story.
As I often find when visiting cemeteries (not something I do regularly though) the atmosphere was very calm and quiet.

(File sizes of the uncompressed photos was too large so I have put shareable links here)

Possibly I should have posted this in Fortean Traveller?
 
And not that it is relevant in any way, but this is just a couple of hundred yards from the home of Lewis Hamilton F1 champ in Tewin (or at least his family home as was, seeing as he's moved to Monaco now I believe, or is it Switzerland?)
 
Always morbidly curious about seeing gravestones of those that have passed at a young age.

Findagrave.com is a great read
