Description
The Cross family tomb is a rectangular chest tomb located in the churchyard of All Saints' Church, dating from 1816. It is made of Portland stone and sits on a deep moulded base. The sides feature rectangular fielded panels, while the ends have oval fielded panels that carry inscriptions. The angles are adorned with squat pilasters, and the corners of the ends have shallow corner fan mouldings. The cover slab has a moulded edge.
The inscriptions on the tomb are quite eroded, but it is known to be dedicated to Mary, the wife of Thomas Cross, who died in 1816, and to John Cross, who died in 1834.
This tomb is of special interest as a handsome and finely-detailed Neo-Classical chest tomb from 1816.
