The tomb has a square plan and a cuboid shape on a plinth, topped with a shallow pyramidal roof featuring a cross-gabled finial. There is a raised inscription panel with paterae in the corners. The east side of the memorial bears the inscription: "Sacred to the Memory of William Williams late of this Parish who died January 6th 1817 Aged 79 Years" along with 12 additional lines.

This memorial is a fine example of stone masonry and enhances the setting of the church, contributing to the group value of the other memorials in the churchyard.
