Description

The Hubbard chest tomb, located approximately 15 metres south of the tower of the Church of Saint Germoe, was erected in 1865 in memory of Elizabeth Hubbard, who died at the age of 59 and was the wife of Henry Hubbard of Ninnis. The tomb features a granite ashlar base topped with an inset inscribed limestone lid, and is enclosed by cast iron railings. It has a rectangular shape and the railings are supported by four iron corner posts and additional posts placed midway along the long sides (north and south). The posts and bars are square in shape. The bottom rail is decorated with quatrefoils within lozenges, while the top rail features Moorish arches. The design is further enhanced by palmette cresting above and bulbous finials adorned with acanthus leaves atop the main posts.
