Description

This group of three monuments by Snook and Pierce is located in the churchyard approximately 20 to 23 meters south of the south aisle of the Church of St Michael. They date from the late 18th century and are made of limestone, resting on a common plinth.

The first chest tomb features a corniced table with a moulded base, floral corner and center pilasters that divide raised shields, topped with an entablature. It commemorates Martha Snook, who died in 1827, Elizabeth Pierce, who died in 1783, and others.

The second tomb is similar but has recessed corner balusters and floral panels flanking an oval panel, dedicated to Philip Parry, who died in 1796, Elizabeth, and others.

The third tomb resembles the first and is dedicated to Henry Snook, who died in 1810, and others.
