What is recorded here
Thomas Harvey died in 1677, and his name still cuts through the limestone in the nave of St Audeon's. The rectangular slab holds Roman capitals, sharp enough to mark a life but quiet enough to disappear beneath church traffic. Whatever Harvey did or suffered, the stone refuses to explain. It only points back at him, waiting for someone curious enough to look up from the floor and ask who he was.
In the nave of St Audeon's medieval parish church (DU018-020334----) is a memorial stone commemorating Thomas Harvey (d. 1677). It is a rectangular limestone slab with incised inscription in Roman capitals.
