Talk:St Mary's Church, Southampton

higher wall due to cholera epidemic?
As found on :https://old.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/czrfrj/compulsory_purchase_okay_let_me_forget_some/ez3j30w/ In Southampton where I used to live, there's a church with an unusually high graveyard wall. Apparently, during a cholera epidemic, they didn't have enough room, so they stacked up the bodies, dumped soil on them and built the wall higher. St Mary's church for anyone in the area.

If there is truth to this, please document it! 24.78.190.118 (talk) 05:09, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

Description of the interior of the church
Is the description of the interior of the church - and in particular the first sentence - still correct following its recent re-ordering so that it can become part of the HTB group? Photographs on the Church website suggest that the church is now oriented to what would have been its (liturgical) north side. Although the High Altar would appear still to be in position, it is difficult to see where the Nave Altar would fit in as the church is currently arranged and oriented.Ntmr (talk) 14:14, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
