Description
Two Dean monuments are located in the churchyard between 7 and 12 meters east of the chancel of the Church of St Giles. These are two chest tombs from the early 19th century, made of limestone. The eastern tomb features a moulded plinth, two beaded panels, pilasters with floral drops, a fluted frieze to the cornice, and a weathered top with an illegible inscription. The western tomb has a similar design, also with two beaded panels, a draped urn at the center, pilasters adorned with a Greek key motif, a plain frieze leading to a weathered flat top, and an inscription commemorating Jane Dean, who died in 1820.
