A Walk in the Cemetery | ST MARGARET'S CHURCH | Wolstanton | Staffordshire | UK

St Margaret's Church is an Anglican church in Wolstanton, Staffordshire, England, and in the Diocese of Lichfield. The building is Grade II listed building. The Domesday Book of 1086 mentions Wolstanton, and records that the village had a priest. Some of the building dates from the medieval period; the tower and octagonal spire, which, unusually, is on the north side, is on medieval foundations. The church is in decorated style. There was rebuilding in 1623; the church was substantially rebuilt in 1860, by Ward and Son, the chancel being designed by Anthony Salvin.
The grave of Henry Faulds (1843–1930), missionary and developer of fingerprinting, is in the churchyard. The churchyard also contains the grave of Sarah Smith, who died in 1763 aged just 21. The inscription alleges that she was murdered by poisoning, and suggests the name of the man responsible. The grave is also Grade II listed.
