Description

The Toghill monument is a chest tomb located in the churchyard about 11 metres south of the tower of the Church of St. James the Great. It dates from the 18th century and is made of limestone. The tomb features a flat top with a moulded edge and a moulded base, along with quarter balusters that have leaves at their bases. On the north side, there are paired shaped inscription panels, which include a central female figure in Grecian costume reclining against a broken column, accompanied by a skull and other symbols. This monument is dedicated to Mary Toghill, who passed away in 1795, as well as other members of the Toghill family. It is one of a pair of monuments to the Toghill family, with the other located 3 metres to the south.
