Philip Larkin in Cottingham Cemetery

'PHILIP LARKIN
1922 – 1985
WRITER'

This is one I missed last time I was up there: too busy hunting toads, I suppose.

'MARGARET
MONICA BEAL
JONES
7TH MAY 1922
15TH FEBRUARY 2001'

A little behind Larkin's grave is that of his long-time partner Monica Jones. Unfortunately, I missed the grave of Maeve Brennan.
