Description
Two headstones and five bodystones are located about 21 metres southeast of the chancel of the Church of All Saints.

The headstone on the west features a central oval panel at the top, flanked by scrolled decoration, and commemorates Stephen Monckton, who died in 1783, along with other family members. The eastern headstone has a scrolled, moulded head and commemorates Mary Monckton, who died in 1833. These memorials are part of a notable group of Monckton memorials.
