Mourning Statues 2
More, as promised, of the Mourning Statues in St Anne's churchyard in Lancashire. This pair of angels, one grieving, the other consoling, marks the grave of Agnes Lois Mary McClaren who died in Paris 29 October 1923. The differing views and angles are a regular feature of my grave recording and it is certainly worth the effort to take photographs from all angles rather than one straight on . . . I was impressed to see the sculptor (unknown) had even modelled the feet of the grieving angel.

More Angels with Stars
Now I can't stop finding them. These two angels are marking graves in St Anne's Churchyard in Lancashire. They, too, have stars on the heads. Has anyone else noticed them elsewhere?
