Extract

When I was last at Hopton, I went again to examine those three singular sculptured stones in the churchyard at Bradburn; two of these (see plate III. No 1 and 2) are fixed in a wall so near together as to form a narrow pass, the common way of making stiles in Derbyshire; the other is placed as a corner-stone in the foundation of the porch, which evidently appears to be coëval with the church.
