About:
The cemetery at St. Peter's Church In The Great Valley is an interesting place to visit. The church is located way down some back-roads. After arriving, you are bound to say "Wow" at how nice of a location this is.
They have newer burial areas and an ancient cemetery by the old church. Instead of using lawn mowers and weed-wackers around the old tombstones, which would put those stones at risk for damage, they use sheep to keep the yard maintained. A very nice person there allowed me to go inside that enclosed yard to photograph the sheep (who kinda didn't like me being there). I hung out for a little while, let the sheep get used to me, then took my shots.
Their newer burial area has a lot of marble stones. This is unusual. (Marble is not as durable as granite.)
