Memorial Inscriptions | Welcome to Birdingbury

In August 2009, Birdingbury Local History Group compiled a list of memorial inscriptions in the graveyard of St Leonards Church, Birdingbury (see below). If you find a name in which you are interested in the list, you may wish to refer to the detailed study attached in the Memorial Inscriptions Spreadsheet.

All the gravestones and have been given a unique number which can be cross-referenced with the Memorial Inscriptions Spreadsheet or the alphabetic list at the bottom of this page (hover the mouse over the photograph for the reference number).
Our thanks go to Geoffrey Johnstone who photographed all the headstones.

Members of the History Group are happy to provide further information and/or photographs if you are interested. Please contact them: birdingburyhistory@hotmail.co.uk
