From Oulton to the sea

 
If you climb up and over the Great Orme at Llandudno in Wales, you come eventually to the lonely St Tudno's Cemetery Chapel, the last building along the coastline, which looks out over the Irish Sea. It's a great spot to be buried, an opinion the lady (and her husband) who chose the grave-place photographed here obviously must have shared.

The sea must have indeed meant something extra to her, as the carving wrapped around the top of the stone is of two dolphins riding the waves.

Although this is a photo of a place in Wales, it figures in this Staffordshire blog, because the inhabitant of this grave originally came from Oulton, a village in the middle of this county.
