Description
The group of monuments is located within the churchyard of the Church of All Saints, east of the path leading to Church Cottage, and extends as far as the Thomas Radway monument. It comprises fifteen limestone headstones, dating from the late 17th century to the late 18th century.
A row of four headstones faces west along the east side of the path to Church Cottage. Two are from the late 18th century with partially legible inscriptions framed within cartouche-like surrounds. Beside these are two matching, smaller headstones likely from the mid-17th century, featuring shouldered segmental tops and partially legible inscriptions inside raised circular borders, decorated with bellflower motifs. Each headstone has a foliate spandrel on the outside of the raised margin and winged hourglass motifs at the top.
To the east, a row of four headstones (three facing east) includes three that mirror the design of the mid-17th century headstones mentioned above. One is dated 1734, and another 1761. A simple, small headstone at the southern end of this row features a canted head and a sunken inscription plaque initialled 'M.H. 1728'.
A single headstone, located approximately 2.5 metres east of this row, dates to 1774, and is similar in style to the mid-18th century headstones previously described, with a raised oval margin to the inscription panel and an hourglass motif at the top.
Two mid-to-late 18th century headstones stand 2.5 metres south of the preceding row; one has a cartouche-like surround, and the other features a double inscription panel and a double scroll at the top.
Finally, a row of four headstones sits north of the Thomas Radway chest tomb. From north to south, one 18th-century headstone is set forward and has a partially legible inscription with a cartouche-like surround and a cherub’s head at the top. A similar headstone is to the right. A mid-17th century headstone exhibits a shouldered segmental head and a largely illegible inscription panel encased within a raised margin and foliate decoration, including three-petal flowers in the lower spandrels and foliate scrollwork in the upper spandrels, and an hourglass motif at the top. An almost recumbent headstone is positioned to the right and shares a similar design but has a rectangular inscription panel flanked by swags and a winged hourglass at the top.
