How Caple Churchyard

How Caple is a wonderful place; a green sanctuary abounding with plantlife and awe-inspiring scenery.

Hilda Lee from How Caple Court, has a vision that the churchyard should reflect this and has inspired a group of residents to meet each Friday morning to carry out gardening work throughout the churchyard and especially around the gravestones. The mission is to create a beautiful garden of remembrance where visitors can sit and be thoughtful, visit the graves and to simply be at peace with the surroundings.

Work is also being carried out on the grave stones themselves, bringing ancient indecipherable acknowledgements back to life, and information from the graves is been collated for research purposes.

Below is a list of all the graves in How Caple Churchyard.
