The Watch House, St Nicholas Churchyard, High Bradfield
The Watch House at High Bradfield was built in 1745 as a place from which
to guard newly buried bodies (from bodysnatchers) in the churchyard of St
Nicholas, Church There are apparently only two or three of this type of building
still in existence in the country This description was taken
from the book "Around Bradfield, Loxley & Hillsborough" by Malcolm Nunn, which
shows an early photo of the Watch House
