So the second blog I wrote back in 2012 was about the author Agatha Christie I never realised when I was younger that she live in part of the Village Called Winterbrook. Winterbrook became part of Wallingford a few years ago stolen from the village by the Council and Wallingford. The one thing they could not take was where she is buried which is at St Mary's Church in Cholsey. Many people visit the churchyard from all over the world and if you ask there are people who are willing to show you the grave and tell you some history on the church . The grave itself is over in the North West corner of the churchyard and had a large white headstone marking it

Interesting to see.
Interesting post.
Glad you liked the post
nice ;o)
We know Cholsey well but have never gone to look for Agatha Christie's grave as didn't know the connection when we lived that way. One day Bill we might get there - here's hoping. Take care and keep well.
Now you have me, most people have never heard of the place
...a beautiful stone with an interesting story. Take care Bill.
Oh I would definitely visit if I was over that way Bill, I loooove her Poirot books, the series with David Suchet as Poirot was brilliant. Hope you are feeling a bit better these days.
It was recently cleaned up
Better than I was that is for sure
