Bit of History 🙂 ![]()
Dating back to the 10th or 11th century, this rare Anglo Norse grave marker is called a hogback because of its curved roof. It was literally carved to look like a miniature Viking longhouse for the dead.![]()
Even after a thousand years, you can still clearly see the intricate details. The sculptor carved teardrop shaped roof shingles along the top and beautiful, interwoven knotwork patterns down the sides.![]()
The stone is carved from heavy grey sandstone imported from North Wales. Moving that kind of weight back then proves the person buried beneath it was a highly elite figure with serious trade connections.![]()
The stone is safely preserved inside the museum area of St Bridgets Church, which is amazingly fitting because the church itself was originally founded by Christian Vikings!![]()
It is completely mind blowing to get up close to this level of ancient craftsmanship![]()
