Description

The Harrison tomb, located approximately 13 metres south of the porch of the Church of Saint Hilary, is a Grade II listed structure from the 18th century. It is likely a buttress tomb or a blind doorway leading to an underground vault. The tomb commemorates Polly, the wife of James Harrison, who died in 1772 at the age of 26. It is made of granite and features an incised slate insert. The front of the tomb is square-headed, while the rear is stepped down and chamfered to an earth bank. The epitaph reads: "She was a woman take her for all in all I shant look on her like again."
