Title
Heptonstall - Pinnacle from the New Church - HLS05152
Description
The 'new' Church, replacing the old medieval one, opened in 1854 but was struck by lightning in 1875 causing a pinnacle to come crashing down onto the graves below. The pinnacle now sits by the church wall and the inscription reads:
"This pinnacle was struck down by lightening from the south west corner of this tower on April 5th A.D. 1875"
"This pinnacle was struck down by lightening from the south west corner of this tower on April 5th A.D. 1875"
