Description
The Thomas Andrew Knight II monument is a chest tomb located about 12 yards north-east of the north-east corner of the Church of St Mary. It dates from 1827 and is made of fossilised limestone in a simple Neo-Classical style. The tomb features a plain base and a low hipped chamfered capping. The side and end panels have recessed margins and are crafted from finer limestone.
On the west side, there is incised lettering that reads:
