    I live just over on the mainland and used to work in the supermarket up the hill from here. In the good weather, we’d come down to sit here or the promenade with our sandwiches to spend our lunch hour.

    Those “Pillars” were tree stumps, they mean a movement to turn the focus of death back to life. Or lives cut short. (Maybe there were 4 children there?)

    • @brianrowlands9751

      They are truncated pillars or columns. They are mounted on small circular architectural pedestals; there is no indication of roots and the surface texture is smooth rather than bark-like. Their symbolic significance is, however, the same. The main text - Shadow of death without any order- is a paraphrase of part of verse 22 of the tenth chapter of the Old Testament book of Job. The lower plaque commemorates Ann Griffiths, died 1858 aged 8 months. The uppermost inscription commemorates Mary, beloved wife of John Griffiths but there is too much blurring in the video to make out the date of her death (?aged 51 years) and what could be her husband's occupation or profession (?shipwright). It seems likely Ann was the daughter of Mary and John.

      @@deadgoodwalks As mentioned in your video the date is 630 AD. Not the oldest church in Great Britain there are several older including St Martin's Church in Canterbury where the exact date is unknown but was enlarged in 597 AD. The original part of the Church still stands and may be post Roman so could be mid 5th century. I think St Martin's Church would be a good one for you to visit the graveyard looks very interesting. The graveyard contains the grave of Mary Tourtel, the creator of Rupert Bear.
