Description

The Lear and Shuckburgh monuments are two chest tombs located in the churchyard about 34 metres west of the Church of St. Laurence in Downton. They date from the mid-19th century and are made of limestone. Both tombs share the same design, featuring two beaded rectangular panels on the main sides and a chamfered flat top that includes inscriptions. One tomb commemorates Thomas Lear, who died in 1828, and the other honors Charles Shuckburgh of The Moot, who died in 1833. There is also a marble tablet dedicated to Shuckburgh in the Lady Chapel of the church, created by Osmond of Sarum.
