Description

Holbrow and an unidentified monument are located immediately east of the northeast corner of the north transept in the churchyard of the Church of St. John the Baptist in Kingscote. These two chest tombs date from the late 17th century, with the tomb of William Holbrow marked 1688. They are made of limestone and feature flat tops, a moulded plinth and capping, and lyre ends. The Holbrow tomb, situated to the west, has flattened scroll design panels on each side of its moulded rectangular side panels. The unidentified tomb has cartouche ends and acanthus returns, with plain fielded panels flanking the side inscription panels. At the time of the survey in March 1986, both tombs were partially overgrown, with the Holbrow tomb almost completely obscured.
