Group of 4 Monuments in the Churchyard, Between About 3 and 8 Metres South of South Wall of South Transept Church of St Mary

This description covers a group of four stone monuments located in the churchyard, positioned between approximately 3 and 8 meters south of the south wall of the south transept of the Church of St Mary.

The group includes two pedestal tombs, one chest tomb, and one headstone. The first pedestal tomb commemorates various Hill children, including two named Ann, who died in 1785 and 1796, along with two others. It features a low, weathered top with a step and a weathered edge on the lid, a moulded edge, and a leaf frieze. The sides have raised ovals with corner paterae, and it rests on a moulded base.

To the south, there is an unidentified pedestal tomb from around 1800, which has a weathered top, a step, and a moulded edge on the lid, with raised rectangles on each side and a moulded top to the plinth, all set on a large square stone base. The inscription has weathered away.

Next, there is an unidentified mid-18th century chest tomb with a flat lid and moulded edge. It features quarter square gadrooned corner balusters and originally had rococo carving on the south side, with a fielded panel on the north, a sunk panel on the west, and a coat of arms in relief on the east. It has a moulded base, and the inscription on the lid may refer to Robert Hall.

Finally, between the last two monuments is a headstone for John Hill, who died in 1744. This headstone has a cambered top, a cherub's head with wings, a swag below, corner flowers, and pendant drapery down the sides. The lettering is well preserved, featuring a long 's'.
