Shocking how some church communities treat old gravestones.

 St Fraid, Llansantffraid-ym-Mechain, Powys Wales

Llansanffraid means "Church of Saint Bride" in the Welsh language, and ym-Mechain refers to its location in the medieval cantref of Mechain and distinguishes it from other places with the same or similar names. The name is based on the story of St Bhrid, who is said to have floated across the Irish Sea on a sod of turf, or to have been carried to Scotland by two oystercatchers.

Not for the first time we were left shocked by the way some church communities treat old gravestones.
