Three tomb chests with side walls abutting one another, to Richard Lonsdale (d.1776) Ellen Lonsdale (d.1770) and John Lonsdale (d.1816). Dressed stone with panelled sides, lettered and decorated lids. The three lids are in matching style, with lengthy inscriptions in shouldered panels, the spandrels in the upper corners decorated in relief with winged faces in primitive style.
