Description

The Gould monument is an early 19th-century chest tomb located in the churchyard of St Thomas à Becket in Pucklechurch, approximately 3 metres south of the chancel. It was designed by Greenway of Bristol and commemorates Daniel Gould (died 1813) and other members of his family. The sandstone monument features a flat top with a moulded edge, a moulded plinth, and quarter balusters. The north and south faces each have a large, raised oval cartouche with a rosette at each corner.

The monument's designation as a Grade II listed building reflects its design interest as a well-preserved example of an early 19th-century chest tomb with restrained detailing, and its group value in relation to the Grade I-listed church of St Thomas à Becket and other listed tombs within the churchyard.
