A year ago, I came across my first Commonwealth War Grave memorial for a member of the Home Guard. This year, I came across my first one for a woman who served in the British Army during WWI.

#spring has arrived at Wheatley St Mary the Virgin. The village had a chapel by 1427, which was replaced with a new building in the late 18th century. However, the present building dates to the mid-19th century. It was built in a new location to a design by G E Street and was consecrated in 1857.
