Description
This group of five monuments is located in the churchyard approximately 30 meters northeast of the chancel of the Church of St. Cyr. They date from the 18th century and are made of limestone. The group includes three lyre-ended chest tombs: one features delicate foliage carving and is inscribed to Harris, though the date is illegible; another has extremely elaborate armorial end cartouches and is inscribed to Robert Ratcliffe, who died in 1704; the third is adorned with putti and cherub's heads, inscribed to John Andrews, who died in 1778. Additionally, there is a chest tomb with gadrooned corner balusters and anthropomorphic end cartouches, but its inscriptions are illegible. The final monument is a circular 'tea caddy' with a reeded dome and five engaged columns, featuring curved inscription panels between them, inscribed to various members of the Dimock family, with the earliest date being 1796.
