Description
This is an unidentified chest tomb located about 9 meters south of the southeast buttress of the south porch in the churchyard of the Church of St. Mary. It is likely from the early 19th century and designed to imitate a medieval tomb chest, which is approximately 3 meters to the west. The tomb is made of limestone and features a flat top with a roll-moulded edge and an obliterated inscription. The base has a moulded splayed plinth. The sides and ends are decorated with alternating quatrefoils within circles and narrow trefoil head niches, with three quatrefoils on the sides and one on each end.
