Description
Three monuments are located in the churchyard, between 1 and 3 metres south of the Church of St John the Baptist. The group consists of two chest tombs and one body tomb. The body tomb, dating from the early 18th century, is situated to the south of the group. It is made of limestone and features a rounded east end and a triangular west end, although the inscription is illegible. The two chest tombs to the north are also early 18th century limestone, characterized by moulded plinths and flat tops with good lettering. The north-west tomb is dedicated to Frances Hwrman, who died in 1710, while the south-east tomb has an inscription for Thomas Markes, who died in 1703.
