Side by side their faces blurred, the Earl and Countess lie in stone...
No idea who these people are, although they must have held a title to be so prominently remembered. I will look it up one day, I do have an enquiring mind after all.
And definitely no idea about what seems to be a severed slave's head on the monument! Maybe someone just left it behind one day when they were shopping. Imagine their consternation when they got home and unpacked their bags... Beans, salmon, catfood, hairnet, wait - where's that stone head?
(Oh, the first line in my post is from Larkin's An Arundel Tomb)
