They date from around 1807 and the early 19th century and are made of limestone.

The Brooks memorial has an inscription on the south side dedicated to William Brooks, who died in 1807, and another on the north side for George and Mary Brooks, who died in 1818 and 1816, respectively. The Fowler memorial has an illegible inscription on the north side and another on the south side for Henry Fowler, who died in 1850.
