Description
There are two unidentified monuments located in the churchyard, between 1 and 4 metres northeast of the porch of the Church of St Mary. These are both chest tombs made of limestone. The southern tomb is in rococo style and likely dates from the mid-18th century, while the northern tomb is from the early 18th century. The southern tomb features a gadrooned plinth with one large fielded panel on each long side, scrolled cartouches on the end panels, and a moulded flat top, though the inscriptions are illegible. The northern tomb sits on a chamfered plinth with plain panels and a cyma-moulded flat top, also with illegible inscriptions.
