Guided Walks in and Around Charnwood 2017 Guided Walks in and around Charnwood 2017 July - December Fusion Lifestyle and Charnwood Borough Council’s walks have been nationally accredited with the Walking for Health scheme, underlining the fact that our programme is of the highest standard.

This headstone of 1784, carved by Winfield of Wymeswold (and another here, of 1787, with a crowned skull) has a scene which almost certainly shows the influence of published books on the mason. An arm appears from Heavenly clouds, hand holding a pair of scales. Although the slate is slightly damaged, the holds an ouroboros, is inscribed Eternity which is certainly inscribed Lighter than on the 1787 headstone. This symbolism probably derives from Quarles (105). On the ground lies a skull inscribed source for the scales held by a hand emerging from Heavenly ublished originally in 1635 (108). This carving is a pictorial representation of an idea commonly found on the Swithland Slate headstones of this period: the futility of earthly, as opposed to Heavenly, rewards.
