Summary: | Text of note in parish magazine about the graffiti on the stone slabs on the seats in the church porch. This includes the outlines of shoes, one or two hands, initials, dates and crosses as well as other symbols and losts of little pits. Similar 'footsteps' have been found in a church in Italy which were apparently workmen wanted to leave something of themselves in that holy place. It is suggested that the footsteps at All Saints were made by sailors setting out for the Newfoundland fishing grounds. |
