Description

A boss set into the wall of a farm building in the garden to the east of West Bilney Hall dates from the 15th century and is made of limestone. It features a sculptured depiction of the entombment of Christ. This boss likely originates from the ruins of the Augustinian Priory at Pentney, located 2 kilometers to the south. West Bilney Hall, built in 1906 and 1913, is not listed.
