This is NOT Grace Darling's tomb. This is her memorial. Her family vault, in which she is buried is exactly 40 metres to the South-southeast of this memorial. The memorial was erected here and to this design, so that it could easily be seen on the skyline by passing mariners.

Grace Darling is buried in the family vault exactly 40 metres to the south-southeast of the memorial. The plot is easily seen on Google Earth as it is the one with the large, enclosed sand coloured plot. The headstone found there is a replica, the original is now housesd in the Grace Darling Museum to protect it from further weathering.

This is NOT Grace Darling's grave. This is her memorial. The grave was 20 yards behind you as you took this photo.

Nice Shot ! It looks like you were quite close to the abbey probably navigating on the river ? I have not been able to get close but will certainly try again. Nick

Knotts Lane must have been named after the family Knott that lived in St. Margarets for 200 years and were keepers at South Foreland Lighthouse for at least 5, possibly as many as 7, consecutive generations.
