Martin Nicholson's Cemetery Project
St Bridget, Bridstow, Herefordshire
The parish church, dedicated to St
Bridget, has a tower in the Perpendicular style but rest of the exterior was
re-built in 1862 to a design by Thomas Nicholson. The stained glass is by
Charles Kempe.
The Royal Hospital was founded in 1682
by King Charles II as a home for soldiers who were unfit for further duty
because of injury or old age.
A father and son remembered on the
same war grave.
Gabriel Link was born on Christmas
Day.
It is unlikely that "Pricclla" was
what the mason was supposed to engrave. "Priscilla" was probably what was
intended.
