Group of 4 Monuments in the Churchyard of the Church of St Andrew Up to 4 Metres East of Porch

This listing describes a group of four chest tombs located in the churchyard of the Church of St Andrew, positioned up to 4 meters east of the porch. The tombs are made of limestone and date from the early to late 18th century.

The first tomb, which is unidentified and dates from the early 18th century, features a moulded plinth and a rectangular inscription plaque on the south side. This plaque is bordered by a winged figure of time holding a scythe and a skeleton representing death. The north side has an inscription plaque that appears to be unused, adorned with a swag and flanked by two figures holding open books. Above, another figure holds a scroll in each hand. The tomb has lyre-shaped ends with foliate scrollwork, an open bible and a cherub's head at the west end, and a heraldic shield at the east end, capped with a moulded margin.

The second tomb is located approximately 0.75 meters southeast of the first and is dedicated to Joseph Peachey, who died in 1737. It also commemorates Robert Robins, who died in 1779, Mary his wife who died in 1799, and other family members on the south side. This tomb features a flat-chamfered plinth, with fielded inscription plaques on both the north and south sides, and sunken inscription plaques with moulded margins.

The third monument, dedicated to John Radway, is situated about 3 meters north of the second tomb and dates from the late 18th century. It has a raised base and a moulded plinth. The south side features a double inscription plaque with partially legible inscriptions and fluted marginal panels. There are unused oval inscription panels at either end, and the tomb is capped with a moulded margin and a hipped and moulded upper capping stone.

The fourth tomb, dedicated to Francis Radway, is immediately southeast of the third monument and also dates from the late 18th century. It has a raised standing with a moulded plinth and double inscription plaques on the north and south sides, separated by a bay leaf stile. The south side features marginal panels with stylized foliate decoration, while the north side has fluted marginal panels. Oval inscription plaques are located at either end, with an inscription on the north end. The tomb is capped with a moulded margin and a hipped and moulded upper capping.
