St Michael, Forden, Powys, Wales
(Click on an image for a larger version)
Unusually the bell tower is sited at the side
of the church rather than at the end.
The mason made a mistake with the date of death and had to
re-engrave the numbers.
The Forden Union workhouse later
became Brynhyfryd Hospital and provided care mainly for the elderly. I found it
very sad that so many residents were buried in unmarked graves.
