Description
A group of five chest tombs located to the north of the Church of All Saints, dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. They are made of stone and share similar features, including inset moulded pilasters at the corners, moulded plinths, and top slabs. The tombs are arranged in two groups. The first group runs north from the chancel and includes William Martin, who died in 1791, Samuel Martin, who died in 1793, and Sampson Martin, who died in 1802; the center tomb in this group has reeded angles but lacks pilasters. The second group, located further north and oriented east-west, consists of the tombs of Harris, who died in 1792, and Margery and Thomas Mosely, who died in 1819 and 1822, respectively.
