This afternoon I deputised for Janet Hodgson and following a brief visit to the English Heritage staff (sadly minus Spencer Trickett) I took over from the morning steward Angela Snow up at the church. It was a busy afternoon for the time of year with around 70 visitors between 1.30 and 4.15pm. which, together with Angela's tally of 40, took the number to well over one hundred for the day; a fair few items were also sold from the trolley. We were visited by local historian and archaeologist Rod Sproat and also by fellow steward Eleanor Baber who gave me the sad news of the recent death of her husband Herbert whose funeral took place here last week.
