Description

The Thomas Marbett chest tomb, located approximately 3.5 meters north of the end bay of the nave at the Church of St. Cyr, dates from the early 18th century and is made of limestone. It features cyma capping and a cavetto base, with lyre-shaped scrolled end panels that display baroque carvings, including grieving putti. The north panel is adorned with an enriched cartouche, while the south panel is simpler and shows some traces of limewash. The tomb commemorates Thomas Marbett, who died in 1731, and it stands within a formerly railed enclosure that includes chest tombs for Mary Browning, John Marbett, and John Marbett II.
