Borley Church, Hall Road, Borley, Sudbury, Essex, CO10 7AE
Registers dating back to 1656 record that over 1,000 people have been buried at Borley Church and Churchyard. Many graves are the last resting place of couples and families, and yet only approximately 100 headstones remain to mark their passing. A display of information discovered about, not only those with visible headstones, but also the lives and relationships of many others through the years will be exhibited in the church and churchyard.
