Description
There are four Baily Monuments located in the churchyard, between 7 and 12 metres south of the Church of St. Laurence. These monuments are a group of four chest tombs dating from the late 18th century to the late 19th century, made of limestone. Each tomb features the same design, which includes a plinth, two fielded panels on the main sides and end panels, and moulded flat tops that bear inscriptions, most of which are now illegible. The earliest legible inscription is for James Baily, who died in 1822.
