Description

A group of four headstones located approximately 5 metres west of the Church of St Levan, dating from the early 19th century. The easternmost headstone is dedicated to Prudence Ladner Blewett, who died in 1813 at the age of 2 months, and Jane Blewett, who died in 1815 at the age of 4. They were the daughters of Thomas and Jane Blewett. The Blewett headstone is a dressed granite monolith featuring a segmental head and an attached incised slate. The other three headstones are also dressed granite monoliths with inscriptions that are now indecipherable; two have segmental heads, while the third has a shaped head.
