Dilapidated graveyard at Wern

You nearly miss this very overgrown graveyard when walking along the road - it is hidden behind a stone wall. The graves are all higgledy-piggledy.

Neglected graveyard at Wern, near Minera

Another view of the graveyard SJ2750 : Dilapidated graveyard at Wern - strangely in these days of health and safety issues, the gravestones have been left at all angles.

Child's gravestone, at Wern

Marking the grave of two children, one aged only 4 days, of Edward and Hannah Parry of Llwynenion. The stone stands out because of its colour, and the fact that it is quite upright in this graveyard which is otherwise very neglected.
