King’s Lynn – St Nicholas’s Chapel (Churchyard)

One of the most notable elements of the churchyard is the Exorcist’s House, located on its edge.

But, sadly, the graves here are nearly all in a poor state of repair and many have been lifted up and propped up against the walls. It’s disappointing that the majority of gravestones are unreadable, there are many stories here that now can’t easily be told. I can’t find an old photo of the churchyard to establish when the stones were moved, but I imagine it was in recent decades.

There’s an interesting mix of gravestones, with several from the seventeenth century, but I struggled to make out sufficient details to be able to identify the person listed on them.
