Description
This chest tomb, located approximately 15 meters east of the north aisle in the churchyard of the Church of St Oswald, is possibly from the 14th century in part and features a 17th-century table. It is made of limestone and has canted ends adorned with raised crosses and foliate motifs. The tomb is topped with a thick capping that has a moulded margin. The head, which may include a headdress, is depicted in relief alongside an incised Celtic cross. Additionally, there are indentations for the game of Nine Men's Morris carved into the upper surface of the capping. This tomb is noted for being unusually early work for its type.
