Ossuary

[andym]

This is St Leonard's at Hythe, Kent.In the cript are the remains of thousands of skeletons.
Nobody seems quite sure where they came from, suggestions are remains of people from other now defunct churches in the area, victims of the black death or remains of soldiers from a battle.









Whatever it is it's a slightly eerie place.

Eerie doesn't begin to cover it.
I'm surprised the crypt is an open house.

To look at something like this and wonder about all the individual lives and life stories. In the future all of these be me.

good point. I forgot to think from that viewpoint.
I tried to find some photos I took in Cambodia many years ago but those are taken with slide films. Almost impossible to find them promptly without digitalizing it.
