Biography

Dorothy Smelt (1750–1820) is warmly remembered by generations of worshippers at All Saints for the quiet grace with which she met both joy and sorrow. Her life, though lived without fancy titles, reflected a devotion to the people and parish she called home.

Their affection endures in the stone of the churchyard, where a simple memorial keeps her name bright beside the peaceful churchyard paths.
