Two Herbert and One Unidentified Monument Circa 25 Metres North of the Tower in Churchyard of the Church of St Mary

Two pedestal tombs and one headstone are located approximately 25 meters north of the tower in the churchyard of the Church of St Mary.

The first monument (a) is an inverted truncated pyramid dating from the mid to late 19th century. It is made of sandstone and features a low-pitched pyramidal top with corner pilasters adorned with incised Greek key ornamentation. The base is moulded and rests on a square slab that sits on a chamfered sub-base, sharing a platform with the adjoining monument (b). Some incised lettering on this monument is badly eroded, except for the east side, which records Samuel Herbert, 1887. However, a survey from 1879 mentions Edmund Herbert, Esquire, from 1841, suggesting that the design of the monument is more likely from that earlier date.

The second monument (b) is an oblong pedestal made of limestone, dating from the late 18th century. It features a square cyma pyramidal capping with a moulded edge, inset corners, and a moulded frieze. The east and west sides have elliptical panels, while the north and south sides have fielded panels. The base is moulded and shares a platform with monument (a). There are inset bronze tablets on three sides, with the south side commemorating Edmund Herbert, who died in 1772 and was a cord-wainer.

The third monument (c) is a headstone made of limestone from the 18th century. It has a cambered head and features a panel with a raised top, flanked by two cherub heads and decorative drops. The center of the panel is bolstered, but the inscription is not legible. This stone lies to the north of the chest tombs and is immediately adjacent to the path leading from the lychgate to the north gate.
