Description
The Leech, Flux, and Herbert monuments are a group of three chest tombs located about 3 to 5 meters south of the south-east tower buttress in the churchyard of the Church of the Holy Rood in Ampney Crucis. The tombs commemorate John Leech, who died in 1771; Robert Flux, who died in 1792; and the Herbert family, with the earliest decipherable date being 1776. They are made of limestone and feature a moulded plinth and capping.
The Leech tomb has a plain two-step flat top on a nearly square base with indented corners, and it includes plain raised end and side panels. The Flux tomb has a stepped tent top with remnants of roll moulding along the top, which is badly eroded. It features a fielded side panel to the north with flanking fluted strips, while the remaining panels are recessed. The Herbert tomb has a badly eroded flat top and plain incised square panels on the ends and sides, divided into two sections.
