Ogbourne St. Andrew is a small, peaceful village located between Swindon and Marlborough.   St. Andrew's church has lots of old gravestones, but alas many inscriptions are no longer readable.

The church is normally kept locked but we couldn't resist looking in through the clear glass windows, and was pleased to be able to see two memorials on the walls.   We did take photographs of them through the window (follow 'Inside' link above), but of course they are not too clear.
