Description

Three monuments are located in the churchyard, approximately 12 meters north-east of the chancel of the Church of St John the Baptist. This group includes two chest tombs and a stone ledger slab, dating from the 18th century and early 19th century. The chest tombs are made of limestone, tall in stature, featuring hipped tops on moulded tables and recessed corner balusters. Each tomb has oval inscribed panels adorned with carved drapes and foliage. The first chest tomb, located to the north, is dedicated to Elizabeth Barnes, who died in 1826, along with others. The second, adjoining the first, is a low stone slab honoring Harry Amor and Elizabeth Hitchcock, both of whom died in 1776. The third chest tomb, similar to the first, is for Robert Pierce of Little Cheverell, who died in 1833.
