Press here
I came across this headstone amongst the graves in St Bridget’s Church, West Kirby, when taking part in the St Olave’s Viking Heritage Walk & Pilgrimage on 25 July 2017. You will see that it simply says “Press”. No forenames, dates or anything else attributable to whoever is buried there. Is this a name or an instruction? What would happen if I went across and pressed it? Forteans can obviously come up with lots of ideas, probably mostly relating to George A Romero films. I rang the vicar at the church who confirmed that it is a grave and that it is assumed to relate to a family name. He didn’t know who is buried there without delving deep into the church records.
