High Hill Graveshelter

Last summer, I visited a new-to-me graveshelter location, High Hill, in Walker County, Alabama.

The church hasn’t been used in some time, and is so graffitied with obscenities that this is really as much as I can show

It has this really terrific setup for dinner on the ground (some people say ‘dinner on the grounds’) with the awning and long table for all the covered dish casseroles, salads, sides, meats, and can you imagine the desserts…

…and this is what I was here to document, the house-type graveshelter

If you know of a graveshelter, be it house-type like this or more of a carport style, any grave shelter construction, I’d love to hear. I’m documenting all the graveshelters in Alabama (over 100+!) and have several elsewhere. Thank you!
