Description

There are two adjacent brown headstones located approximately 7 metres south of the chancel of the Church of St Winifred. Both headstones date from the 18th century and commemorate members of the Brown family. They are made of Beerstone ashlar and feature upright slabs with concave corners.

The northern headstone stands about 700 millimetres high and has a moulded frame. At the top, there is a carved open book with a quotation, flanked by a skull and hourglass. The inscription is in Roman serif upper and lower case lettering, recording the death of Ann Brown in 1762.

The southern headstone is approximately 600 millimetres high and features a round-headed frame with a carved winged cherub's head at the apex, flanked by ribbon scrolls. The inscription begins with Gothic lettering, followed by Roman serif upper and lower case lettering, and records the death of Reginius Brown in 1771.
