The Knights Templar St Marys Church Fordingbridge Hampshire Found Knights Sharpening Sword Stone.



The Knights Templar St Marys Church Fordingbridge Hampshire Found Knights Sharpening Sword Stone.

This was one of our very unique discoveries. On the outside of the Church built into it’s very wall, we found the tomb of a master Knight. Above the tomb, there is a stone where deep sword marks were cut into it.

The Knights had great respect for their leaders, and thus they would line up and anoint their swords by sharpening them on the stone, which was above the master Knight.

We also discovered that there are records of the Knights presence in Fordingbridge recorded in the Vatican in Rome.

Also we found in this ancient Church, high up in the roof space the carved head of John the Baptist. This too gave us the clue that they were there, because John the Baptist is the patron saint of the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitaller.
