I’ve posted pictures of St Andrew’s Church and churchyard many times. I finally went in and took some pictures.

Elegy in a Country Churchyard
It’s hard not to think of Thomas Gray’s Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard on a chilly late Autumn afternoon when you see your shadow on a tombstone. Equally hard to forget Mencken’s gloss on it: “There are no mute, inglorious Miltons, save in the hallucinations of poets. The one sound test of Milton is that he functions as a Milton.”
Lower Church Lane
Autumn Churchyard
This churchyard is particularly lovely in the Autumn and I feel compelled to try and capture it every time I pass.
St Andrew’s
Farnham has been host (so to speak) to the church since as early as the 7th century.
