Description

Two unidentified monuments are located in the churchyard about 5 meters west of the southwest angle of the tower of the Church of St Laurence. These are two chest tombs from the early 19th century, made of ashlar stone. The first tomb, seen from the north, features a moulded base and cap, with concave-sided lozenge plaques on each side set against a horizontally reeded background. It has broad angle piers and carved floral drops, with husk drop decoration on the angle piers at each end. The second tomb is situated about 2 meters southwest of the first. It has baluster angles, a moulded base and capstone, and framed plaques on each side. The northern plaque bears an inscription for a wife of Benjamin Powney, who died in 1818.
