Description

A tombstone, dated 1927, by Sir Charles Nicholson.

MATERIALS: a single, carved limestone slab.

PLAN: the tombstone is situated approximately 2m south-west of the west tower of the Grade I listed Church of St Mary. There are five listed tombstones in the churchyard: an C18 chest tomb, and a group of four C18 headstones (all Grade II).

EXTERIOR: the tomb has a shallow, rectangular form with chamfered edges, resting on a very low, slightly stepped base. It is decorated on its upper surface with a horizontal relief of a simple cross standing upon a stepped base. The left (north) chamfered edge is carved with relief capital letters reading “Evelyn Louise Nicholson 1867-1927”. The right (south) chamfered edge is carved “Charles Archibald Nicholson 1867-1949”. The top chamfered edge is carved “CMN 1883-1962.” The bottom chamfered edge simply bears the letters “RIP”.
