Description

This is a headstone located about 3 metres south-south-east of the south transept of the Church of St Hermes in St Ervan. It likely dates from the 18th century and is made of slate. The headstone is damaged, and the top was probably originally straight. The inscription on the front is eroded and partly illegible.
