A LEOMINSTER event organised by conservation charity Caring for God's Acre will focus on memorials.

Memorials - Art Across Centuries at The Forbury Chapel, on March 25, will look at the tradition of churchyard memorials and interesting local examples.

"We will be exploring why many of today's burial sites lack local distinctiveness," said organiser Andrea Gilpin.

"Local artists will be discussing and showing their work."

The Rt Rev Michael Hooper, Bishop of Ludlow, will conclude the day. Anyone who would like to attend should contact Andrea Gilpin on 01568 611154.
