Just been on a short visit to this area and have photographed all of the CWGC war graves in this lovely little churchyard I could see - if anyone can find a home for these I would be glad to send them on.
I lived in Felpham for a while back in the 80s. As you say, it's a wonderful little church and churchyard. Did you also photograph memorials on the civilian graves? There is one to two brothers, one killed in WW1 and the other in WW2. Their father owned the cinema in Bognor.
Hi Drumaneen, I'd be interested in a copy of the WW1 Coldstream Private NORTON, WILLIAM BERTRAM, Ref: 84. In South-West part. Regards, Diane
Im sure the guys over at British war graves would love to have them added to their site. BRITISH WAR GRAVES - WAR GRAVE PHOTOGRAPHS (Photographs Of British War Graves Supplied Free Of Charge) P
I lived in Felpham for a while back in the 80s. As you say, it's a wonderful little church and churchyard. Did you also photograph memorials on the civilian graves? There is one to two brothers, one killed in WW1 and the other in WW2. Their father owned the cinema in Bognor. I'm sorry to say that I missed that ... I looked out for CWGS headstones only given the time I had.
This grave of an RAF Pilot Officer D H Avory intrigued me ... mainly because of his age .. 61 years . This has to be unusual?
