Description
There are three Barber monuments located in the churchyard, about 6 metres south of the aisle of the Church of St. John the Baptist. These monuments consist of a group of three chest tombs dating from the mid 18th century to the early 19th century, made of limestone. The southernmost tomb is from the 18th century and features missing oval panels with floral carvings in the spandrels, fluted pilasters supporting an entablature, and a flat top. The two early 19th century tombs have reeded or floral pilasters, a fluted frieze, and flat tops. The eastern tomb is dedicated to a member of the Barber family, while the western tomb commemorates Lebbeus Barber, who died in 1824.
