Description
There are two chest tombs located in the churchyard, between 7 and 11 metres north of the nave of the Church of St Mary. The northern tomb is dedicated to Louisa Barton, who died in 1833, while the southern tomb is likely from the early 18th century. Both tombs are made of limestone. The Barton tomb features two egg and dart moulded panels on the south side, a large panel flanked by a carved urn draped with fabric on the north side, quarter balusters, and a fluted frieze on the weathered top. The unidentified southern tomb is lower in height, with ogee-shaped sides leading to a chamfered flat top.
