Talland Church Headstones

Ledger Stone 35

~ Slate ~ A simple double line creates a boarder for this unadorned stone, the script has its own individual quality.

~ Orientation ~ West/East ~ North Aisle ~ 145 x 66cm // 4’9″ x 2’2″

This stone lies beneath the colour glass window on the North wall.

During the ‘Modern Restoration’ of 1848-50 the north wall was re-built; the coloured glass was a gift from great -great grandson Nathaniel Hearle (1785-1870), Mayor, living at Bridge-end in West Looe.

Many members of the Hearle family can be found in the higher graveyard of Talland Church. Five generations have served as Church Wardens since 1735.
