Description
Two ledger stones of Emmanuel and John Tennie are located 6 metres south of the south aisle of the Church of St. Menefreda, 2 metres west of the gravestone of Mary Brown. These stones date from around 1654 and have been reset as headstones. The ledger stone of Emmanuel Tennie, a yeoman from Treglinna, who died in 1654, is a rectangular slate stone with a marginal inscription that is partly buried. It features an incised fleur-de-lys in the corners of the inner panel. On the reverse side, there is an inscription in memory of William Dingle, who died in 1805. The stone to the south is possibly that of John Tennie, also a yeoman from Treglinna, who died in 1654. This rectangular slate stone also has a marginal inscription and an inner panel decorated with floral patterns, along with a later inscription for William Phillips, who died in 1799. Both stones feature inscriptions in upper and lower case lettering with serifs, though the inscriptions are eroded and partly buried.
