Unidentified Monument In The Churchyard About 2 Metres South Of Chancel Of Church Of Holy Trinity

This is an early 18th-century chest tomb located about 2 metres south of the chancel of the Church of Holy Trinity in Cold Ashton. It is made of limestone and features a flat top with a moulded edge resting on a plinth. The east and west sides have raised rectangular cartouches surrounded by an egg and dart motif. The south side displays a raised circular cartouche with a scallop shell surround, along with raised panels on each side that also have an egg and dart surround. The north side has a raised square cartouche with a scallop shell surround and plain raised panels on each side. The tomb includes plain corner pilasters, a moulded base, and a moulded cornice that is broken forward over the cartouches. At the time of the survey in August 1984, the tomb was noted to be in poor condition.
