St Nicholas Churchyard, Arundel, West Sussex
Visited May 2015
At the top of the town, behind the Castle and just across the road from the Cathedral, is the 14th century church of St Nicholas. The church itself is peaceful, and well worth a visit, and it is surrounded on 3 sides by this lovely country style churchyard.
Most of the gravestones date from the Victorian period or later, although traces of older graves can be found - some very worn gravestones still stand, and the stones that make up the paths are (at least in places) formed of broken pieces of gravestones. There is at least one marker made of cast iron, something not found much outside of Sussex.
