Three Hull Family Monuments In Churchyard, North Of North Porch Of All Saints Church

Three Hull family monuments are located in the churchyard, north of the north porch of All Saints Church. These are three chest tombs dedicated to members of the Hull family from Ridgeway Farm, dating from the 18th and 19th centuries, made of ashlar stone.

Starting from the south, the first monument is to Thomas Hull, which appears to be 19th century in an 18th-century style. It features baluster angles, raised fielded plaques on each side with fielded strips flanking them, and a moulded base and cornice. The north plaque commemorates T. Hull, who died in 1862.

The second monument is for Joseph Hull, dating from the late 18th century. It has tapered baluster angles, a moulded base and cornice, and a pulvinated frieze. The fine north plaque is adorned with three cherub heads and large floral drops, with backgrounds that were originally blackened. The south side has a raised fielded centre panel. The north inscription notes Joseph Hull, who died in 1782, while the south inscription is for J. Hull, who died in 1765.

The third monument is to William Hull, located about 3 meters east of the first. This late 18th-century tomb features an ornate south plaque draped with three cherub heads, framed and flanked by ornate fruit and flower drops against a blackened background. It also has tapered baluster angles, a moulded base, and a cornice with pulvination and bead-and-reel decoration. The north side has a fielded centre plaque with fielded strips on each side, and the south inscription commemorates William Hull, who died in 1788.
