Description

A group of four Carter monuments and associated headstones is located in the churchyard, 15 meters northeast of the north chancel chapel of the Church of the Holy Cross. The chest tomb, dating from the early 19th century, is made of limestone and features a moulded table with a reeded fascia. The side panels are inscribed and have light relief carvings, separated by recessed corner balusters, and the tomb has a moulded base. It commemorates John Carter, who died in 1809, and his wife Mary, who died in 1801. To the north of this tomb are three headstones from the late 17th to early 18th century, which are deeply carved with putti and baroque ornamentation, though their inscriptions are illegible. A fourth headstone, dated 1796, is dedicated to Hannah Dowdeswell and is included for its group value.
