Lucy Gallup’s fine memorial in West Norwood Cemetery today. Her ceramic photo plaque is one of the earliest and retains its freshness.

The children call it the 'Pirate's Grave' or the 'Bone Angel's Friend'. This isn't surprising. Conspicuous memorials always pull stories from the loam of lore. More interesting are the tokens they leave it, the ritual games where it is treated as a living thing, an additional playmate . – Dario Tóth

This is Sir William Ryther, a Yorkist knight who died in 1475. He was known as the ‘hero of Towton’ although what he did at the battle in 1461 remains a mystery. His outstanding effigy can be seen at All Saints Church, Ryther, North Yorkshire.

@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social if your capital value rockets up and your income remains the same, your return on investment goes down. So a low ROI is not necessarily a disaster.
