Description
This is a pair of attached tombchests belonging to the Inch family, located 1 metre south of the south aisle of the Church of St Jullita. They date from 1755 to 1766 and are made of stone rubble with granite lids and two rectangular slate ledger stones.
The southern tombchest commemorates William, the son of William and Susanna Inch, who died in 1766, and John Inch, an Alderman of the Borough of Camelford, who died in 1821. It features upper and lower case lettering with serifs and includes the verse: "death with his dart did pierce my heart when I was in my prime Farewell unto this wicked world 'Twas Gods appointed time."
The northern tombchest is dedicated to Arminel, Arminel, Robert, and Ambrose, the sons and daughters of William and Arminel Inch. Arminel died aged 2 days in 1755, another Arminel died aged 1 in 1759, Robert died almost 2 years old in 1763, and Ambrose died aged 9 months in 1763.
