Old English Gravestones Reused in Churchwork
The Gentleman's Magazine notes that old gravestones across churches were repurposed as rain tables, lintels, and font stems. Examples include a cross-incised stone made into a water table for Alnwick church, a lintel for a clerestory in another edifice, and Saxon ornament fragments used in Rothbury and Middleton churches. Such reuse preserves stones that might have vanished.
