The village’s remains
Seven entries across what was a self-contained village, the church, the store, the schoolmaster’s house, a grove, a reserve, and the crematorium’s chapel at the far end. Spread out; the far stop is a walk of its own from the village.
The walk, as a line
Straight between pins, the streets run longer. Every numbered pin opens that place’s own record.
