Description
The monument to John Morgan is a small chest tomb located in the churchyard approximately 7 metres south-east of the porch of the Church of St Andrew. It dates from the early 19th century and features a flat top with an inscription along the chamfered edge. The tomb has simplified quarter balusters and plain panels, although the inscriptions are not legible. At the time of the survey in September 1983, the base was noted to be sunk. The name "JOHN MORGAN" is still legible, but there is no date visible.
