Description
This chest tomb, dating from the late 18th century, is located about 25 yards south-south-west of the west tower of the Church of St Martin. It is constructed of ashlar and features slate inscription panels. The tomb has a moulded base and cornice, a tall hipped ridged capping, and plain corner piers. There are rectangular inscription panels on the north and south sides; the south panel is now detached and illegible. The north panel commemorates Ann, Countess Dowager of Coventry, who died in the 17th century, and her first husband Gilbert, Earl of Coventry, who died in 1719. The south panel commemorates Edmund Pytts, the Countess's second husband.
