Description
There are two chest tombs located in the churchyard, 2 metres east of the chancel of the Church of Holy Trinity. These monuments date from the 18th century and are made of limestone.
The Inman family monument, from the mid-18th century with the earliest date of 1759, features plain angle pilasters, a central pilaster adorned with a cherub's head and floral wreath, and two inscription panels on each side. The lettering is incised, and there is a pulvinated frieze above a plain slab.
The Dyer family monument, dating from the early 18th century with the earliest date of 1734, has gadrooned corner pilasters and single inscription tablets on each side, framed with Rococo cartouches and tendril swirls. Similar tablets are found on the ends, all displaying both Roman and italic script. The slab is topped with a cyma recta cornice, which also features lettering.
