Description
The burial vault surmounted by a table tomb, dating from the 18th century, is located adjacent to the north chancel of St Peter and St Paul's Church. The burial vault protrudes from the ground and features rusticated quoins and central vertical bands. Originally, it had railings that have since been removed. The table tomb is adorned with fluted angle pilasters and a frieze, while the top is moulded with a key pattern. There are side panels, but the inscription has been obliterated.
