Chest Tomb To Thomas Pengelly At Approx 9M East Of All Hallows Church Of Saint Kea

This is a chest tomb from the early 19th century, dedicated to Thomas Pengelly, located approximately 9 meters east of All Hallows Church of Saint Kea. It is made of white limestone and has a rectangular shape. The tomb features a chamfered plinth and clasping fluted corner pilasters, with plain panels between them. The lid is incised and chamfered, though the inscription is partly indecipherable. The current church, built in 1896, replaced an earlier church from 1802 designed by James Wyatt, and the churchyard dates from that time. Very few tomb monuments remain from the earlier church at Old Kea, making the modest architectural features of the early 19th-century monuments in this churchyard historically significant for the parish.
