St Nicholas, Norton Canon, Herefordshire
(Click on an image for a larger version)
Very little remains of the old church, except for the 13th century tower which has 5 bells but the stone piscina kept in the vestry indicates an even earlier foundation. The nave, chancel and porch were re-built in 1706 and further restoration took place in 1868-1869.
Allan Whitney was drowned in New Zealand in 1891. He was only 22 years old.
