'TO THE DEAR MEMORY OF
T.E. LAWRENCE
FELLOW OF ALL SOULS COLLEGE
OXFORD
BORN 10 AUGUST 1888
DIED 19 MAY 1935'
The mother of T.E Lawrence, more familiarly known as Lawrence of Arabia, wanted to emphasise his academic achievements as opposed to his military ones.
Lawrence's funeral service took place at St Nicolas Church, Moreton, and two of the many people present included Robert Graves and Siegfried Sassoon. The grave above is in a cemetery extension some yards beyond the church.
