In Locksbrook the relative wealth is striking compared to other Victorian cemeteries of less well-heeled communities. Nikon D40 and AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VRII lens. Focal length 150mm (full frame equivalent 225mm). 400 ISO; f/5.6; 1/250th.

Life Steals Away This Hour

Maud Heath was a wealthy and childless widow who regularly travelled from Bremhill to Chippenham to sell eggs in the market. At Kellaways the road was often flooded, and so Maud left money in her Will to build a causeway. She died in 1474 and the trustees of the fund erected this monument by the causeway in 1698. Recently it has been cleaned and renovated.
