Though not born locally, our hero served the community faithfully for 35 years and is buried in the local church.
You will need to visit our subject's burial place to answer the puzzle below. The church is open during the day, but it is still a working church, so please check no services are scheduled before you visit.
Our hero was born North of here to Stephen, a malter and Mary.
Due to a rheumatic condition, our subject was withdrawn from school and was self educated in the field expertise for which our subject is remembered.
The job our subject is famous for paid £100 a year, which did not include an allowance for instruments.
Finally, both an asteroid and a lunar crater have been named after our hero.
