Description
This description covers a group of three chest tombs located in the churchyard about 6 metres north of the chancel of the Church of St Cubert. The tombs date from the 18th and 19th centuries and are made of granite with slate inscription tablets.
One of the tombs is an unidentified chest tomb featuring a granite enclosure with moulded coping. The railings have been removed, and there is granite paving around the base. It has a rectangular chest on a moulded plinth, with a flat top that has a moulded edge. There is a rebated slate inscription tablet on top, but the inscription is illegible.
Another chest tomb is set in a granite enclosure with granite coping, also with the railings removed. This tomb features an ashlar rectangular chest on a moulded plinth, a flat top with a moulded edge, and a rebated slate inscription tablet on top, which is likewise illegible.
The third tomb is dedicated to Samuel Hoblyn, who died in 1827. It is an ashlar chest on a moulded plinth, with a flat top that has a moulded edge and a rebated stone inscription tablet on top, featuring shaped corners. This tomb was made by W. Grigg of St Stephens.
