Description

The Cadle monument is a pedestal tomb located in the churchyard about 12 metres north-north-east of the north-east corner of the tower of the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul in Westbury-on-Severn. It commemorates Thomas Cadle, who died in 1790, and is made of stone. The tomb is hexagonal with minor projections to the east and west. It features a small cyma dome set on a steeply-swept base, with a splayed and stepped flat lid that has a moulded edge. The plain frieze includes large projecting scrolls on the east and west faces that act as buttresses, while the remaining four faces are rectangular with a swelling top designed for lettering, marked by a recessed line. The monument stands on a moulded base. The original inscription includes some italic lettering, copperplate scrolling, and long s's, along with later inscriptions. This monument is part of a group of Cadle monuments, with four others also listed.
