Description
The chest tomb and three headstones to the Rail family are located 8 metres southwest of the Church of St. Laud. They date from the early 19th century. The chest tomb is dedicated to William Rail, who passed away in 1866 at the age of 80, and his wife Mary, who died in 1836 at the age of 41. The far left headstone is made of slate with a shaped head and commemorates Samuel Rail, who died in 1838 at the age of 33, and his wife Jane, who died in 1882 at the age of 74. The second headstone is a granite monolith with an inset slate oval, honoring Ann Rail of Helland, who died in 1819 at the age of 69. The third headstone is a square-headed granite monolith with an inset slate rectangle, dedicated to Jami Rail, who died in 1808 at the age of 85. The chest tomb is rectangular in shape, featuring dressed granite sides, a square-edged granite lid, and an inset incised slate.
