Group of 14 Chest Tombs and Anne Collier Headstone Approximately 2-3 Metres South and South East of Chancel of Church of St Mary

This listing describes a group of 14 chest tombs and a headstone for Anne Collier, located approximately 2 to 3 meters south and southeast of the chancel of the Church of St. Mary. The headstone, which commemorates Anne Collier who died in 1692, dates from the late 17th century and is made of limestone with a scrolled head.

There are two chest tombs located about 3 meters southeast of the chancel, both from the early 19th century and made of limestone. The eastern tomb features beaded panels, a moulded plinth, cornice, and top, commemorating William Collier, who died in 1802. The western tomb is plain with a moulded plinth, cornice, and shaped top, commemorating Edward Collier, who died in 1831, along with his wife and children.

Two additional chest tombs are situated approximately 2 meters south of the chancel and 1 meter east of the south transept, also from the early 19th century and made of limestone. The northern double chest tomb has a moulded plinth, cornice, and an acorn finial on the shaped top, commemorating A.W. Batt, who died in 1817, and Mary Batt, who died in 1833. The southern tomb features fielded panels, a moulded plinth, cornice, and top, commemorating William Long, who died in 1823, along with his wife and family.

Another pair of chest tombs is located about 2 meters south of the chancel and 5 meters east of the south transept, dating from the early 19th century. Each has beaded and fielded panels, along with a moulded plinth, cornice, and top. The northern tomb commemorates Thomas Jones, who died in 1827, while the southern tomb commemorates William Ashfield, who died in 1828. The eight chest tombs from the 19th century are noted as not having special architectural interest.
