Description

This is an unidentified pedestal tomb located in the churchyard, approximately 3 meters north of the Wells monument and to the east of the Church of St. James. The tomb dates from the late 18th century and is made of limestone. It features round ends with a fluted frieze. On the east side, there is a relief portrait of a weeping putto next to a pedestal-mounted urn, which is shaded by an overhanging tree. The west side displays a funereal urn. The side panels have round tops with raised rope moulding on the north side and waterleaf decoration enriched with foliage branches on the south side. The tomb has a hollow moulded top and a moulded base, but the inscriptions are illegible.
