At the moment you get to see all our gravestone discoveries for free but sadly I don't think the current situation can continue. We are having to travel further and further to reach sites that haven't already been surveyed and the total investment in time and money we made in 2015 would probably shock you.
If you do enjoy looking at our work then please help us continue the hunt by buying a copy of Grave Hunting - Tips and Tales. Remember it is the small profit from the sales of our books that pay for the trips where we take the photos you seem to enjoy so much.
