Photo Hunt - Two

The theme of this week's is Two. I returned to a favourite stamping ground for photographs, the churchyard of St Andrew's in Hornchurch, and noticed that there were a number of war graves with two occupants.


I have no idea who the Farrants were but looking at their age they must have been brothers. They died after the end of hostilities in November 1918. How sad to live through a bloody conflict like the Great War then die just after.

Mr Bruce died during WWI, his wife who also died just after the end of hostilities is buried with him.


The story of the men from Niue who served in the Maori Pioneer battalion is very sad. See this earlier post for more information

Playing with Nikon Capture

Gravestones at St Andrews' in Hornchurch. I have just got Nikon capture and was having a play around. It's easier to use that photoshop but perhaps with rather less functionality.

Wordless Wednesday - Langtons, Hornchurch




Langotns was a small manor house in the centre of Hornchurch. It was bought by the council some time during the last century and is now mainly used as a registry office and venue for wedding functions.
