Our friends Barry and Mary found the old post card of the churchyard, which is just outside our door and gave us a copy last night.
(Le Presbytére is just to the right of the tree)
I went out this morning and tried to get a shot from the same angle.
Interesting point is that in the earlier shot, which must have been taken around 1900, there is a sign above the church door declaring the building Propriete Communale underlining the fact that, unlike Ireland, the Catholic church in France did not have a “special position”.
