Church of All Saints, Cawood
Somehow I just knew this was home.
Notice the flag at half mast.
This is where the Cawood family's private chapel once stood. The small
stone insert on the left memorializes the marriage between the Cawood and Acclom
families.
Acclom family crest is on the left, Cawood on the right.
Two medieval tombstones re-used in the wall when the church was rebuilt in
1450. Could one of these be the tombstone of John Cawood, my 18th-great
grandfather, who was buried in the church in 1390?
This arch once led to the Cawood Chapel.
What a wonderfully warm feeling.
