Description
There are two chest tombs located approximately 6 meters northwest of the west door of the Church of St Mary in Charlton Kings. The tombs date from the late 18th century and early 19th century. One tomb is dedicated to David Ellis, who died in 1783, and features a late Neo-Classical style. It is a tall chest with a shaped plinth, fluted pilasters on rectangular panels, an inscription inside a circular wreath, and urns and swags on the sides. There is also a second tea-caddy type tomb chest from the early 19th century, which has a shaped plinth, raised rectangular inscription tablets on the sides, and a moulded cornice with a shaped cap.
