Description
This listing describes a chest tomb and two headstones located approximately 5 meters south of the Church of Saint Manacca, dating from 1766. The chest tomb is dedicated to William Williams, the son of Richard and Ann Williams, who died at the age of 4. It features an incised slate monolith slab set on a stone base, which bears the following epitaph: "Short was my life But lasting is my Rest Blest be the man Ye Spare these stones An evil to him that moves my bones." Additionally, there are two nearby round-headed headstones from the 18th century, though their inscriptions are indecipherable.
