There was a teacher at a Long Island school. I think 5th grade was fired because he took students on field trips to old cemeteries. His rationale was sound. The kids learned math by determining age at death and history by discussing events during that person’s life. A few parents declared it as ghoulish and unseemly. I thought it was a great idea. I still like to visit old cemeteries. Maybe looking for a new home:-P:-P. I assume this cemetery is somewhere in Great Britain.

I'm afraid I can't detect a cemetery but, in any case it's not in Great Britain!

It's perfectly obvious that no-one is interested in this, so would participants like me to post a different one, or would anyone like to post one of their own?

Suppose we should put this to rest already...According to InPhoto (2013), Benitoite (2015), and Nigel (2020), it appears to be the Maguga dam on the Komati River...is that it, Roy? :lol:

At last this thread has been resurrected and I can pass it over! Many thanks Ken - and it's all yours.

A basic search took me straight to it! If I can come up with a good photo to post I'll claim it, but I'm kind of running out.

I would say yes to both.
