St. Helen's Church, Whitley Chapel - gravestone detail

Description
"The delicate motif carved at the top of the gravestone is of Lily of the Valley, Convallaria majalis. It is often seen on C19th grave stones, symbolizing purity, innocence, the return of happiness, and renewal, as it is one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring. http://callmetaphy.blogspot.co.uk/2011/08/lily-of-valley-tomb-stone-and-pips.html" Photo by Andrew Curtis, 2013. -
