Hexagonal pedestal tomb. To John Cox, Clothier, 1770. Limestone. Hexagon standing in paved surround to raised curb, formerly railed. Tomb has very flat pyramidal capping to a moulded edge over plain frieze; inscription panels raised and shaped; cavetto-mould base on step. Much lettering still decipherable, earliest inscription to John Cox, 1770, but others through to 1860. Immediately to north, set to the stone paving, a series of engraved plates, the latest date 1970; also first plate records seven children aged at death, respectively: 6 months, 1 hour, 4 years, 22 years, 21 years, 24 years and 19 years. Set imme- diately east of tomb base is an engraved plate giving information on those recorded on the monument. A simple design, but unusually records a 200 year span of Painswick history.
