Description
This description covers a group of four chest tombs located in the churchyard, 2 to 4 meters south of the south aisle of the Church of the Holy Cross. These tombs date from the late 18th century and are made of limestone. They are lettered from north to south and east to west.
The first tomb features panelled angle pilasters, with two raised and fielded panels on the south side and one on the north, along with lozenge panels on the ends. The incised lettering is eroded, and it has a moulded cornice and a cyma recta moulded slab.
The second tomb has angle balusters with raised and fielded panels on the ends and the north side, and an oval panel on the south. It includes a moulded plinth and a cyma recta moulded slab.
The third tomb also has angle balusters, featuring three raised and fielded panels on the south side and two oval panels on the north. This tomb is leaning to the south and has a moulded plinth and a cyma recta moulded slab.
The fourth tomb consists of panelled angle pilasters and a single incised panel on each side, topped with a cyma recta moulded slab. It is sunk to two-thirds of its height.
