Hello again Boy Scout
I recently visited Cheddleton Church and have seen FBF's memorial.  It is very impressive.

Gosh Dodi! You must have known exactly where to look!
When I finally got to visit some years ago, nobody there (including the vicar who happened to be there), knew anything about it, had no idea where it was, and had never heard of it. (This was before I'd found out it was in the Sleigh book)
This despite the fact that later I realised it was the monument way up high on the wall at the back of the church. Totally now all black (I think originally it was brass - it looks as if it was in the picture in Sleigh), and unable to see what is written on it.
Did you take a ladder with you? :)
