Description
A group of two chest tombs, dating from the late 18th century, is located approximately 4 metres west of the former Unitarian Chapel on Gosditch Street in Cirencester. These tombs are made of limestone and commemorate Thomas Dawson, who died on February 21, 1786, and Ann, who died on September 14, 1790. The churchyard is heavily overgrown, making a detailed description of the tombs challenging.
