We had a very productive session in the memorial garden this morning, our gardener sadly has had to stop due to ill health and the plants are taking over!
We have managed to uncover the corner of Nathaniel Webb’s tomb - he gave the chandelier to the chapel in 1728.
Another tomb that needs rescuing from the undergrowth is Dr Malachi Blake’s - he was the founder of the Taunton and Somerset Hospital on East Reach.
There is still much to do.
Thank you to Fran, Jan, Nikki, Rob and Jay for all your hard work, conversations and laughter.
Our two ‘new members’ Blade and Amber were very relaxed, a joy to meet.
