Limpsfield Churchyard Book

In Spring 2026, I finished writing a short book, including 37 mini biographies, on the people buried in Limpsfield Churchyard. Most moving for me was the discovery of people whose names had been forgotten since the 15th century.

From 2024, short articles in the Limpsfield Parish Magazine:

Fritz-Otto Busch, a Nazi in Limpsfield churchyard

Trades in Limpsfield 1841 Census

Pre-Reformation Organs in Limpsfield

Quakers in Limpsfield

Smugglers in Limpsfield

Taking the Waggon to Limpsfield

To commemorate the 200th anniversary of Wanstead Parish Church, I wrote a history of this North East London parish. Patricia Wilkinson contributed sections on the Church School and buildings. This was the first time that the archives of Wanstead, in the Essex Record Office, had been examined.

Wanstead Book

Do take time to look at the book available below, a scan of the original from 1991, currently out of print. Wanstead has a remarkable history, with royal associations, boasting a country estate - now the extensive parkland - with a house more splendid than Blenheim. One of Dowland's songs from around 1600 speaks of the delights of its woods.
