TALES FROM A
COUNTRY CHURCHYARD
What do an unknown sailor, the man who taught King George VI to ride horses, a prodigal Hungarian violinist and a senior ‘Resident’ from Sarawak all have in common? They are interred in St Michael and All Angels’ churchyard in Thursley, Surrey. Beside them are generations of farmers, blacksmiths, bakers and other village folk.
Here are a selection of their stories, ranging through the centuries. From war heroes to criminals, from sailors to shop keepers, from knights to a count’s servants, Thursley has been home to them all.
Buy the book and read their fascinating tales.
