I do and we have at least three 'black death' churches locally!

As the granddaughter of colliers, although they were deep pitmen, there's something of sad feeling about that although I know it's for the best

We have our own mediaeval church in the middle of nowhere — no need to travel to Lincolnshire. https://www.flickr.com/photos/jelltecks/8856387988/
