Setting of 'Donation Stone' in the walls of Digmoor Methodist Church.
There are about 15 of these stones laid to name members of the church who contributed to the building of the new church. The chuch was completed in 1931.
The old school (1869) can be seen in the background

That's My Great Grandfather, John Watkinson (1868-1952), who was one of the members who contributed. He and his wife used to keep the bakery & shop in Tawd Bridge.
