Description
The Dimery tomb, located approximately 11 meters south-west of the south-west corner of the Church of St Giles, is an altar tomb dating from the early 19th century. It is made of sandstone and features a circular form with deep scroll side supporters. The top is fluted, domed, and moulded, resting on a cavetto base on a plinth, which is fluted in circular section and sits on a square stylobate that was formerly railed. The tomb has upright elliptical inscription panels with raised moulding, topped with intricately carved intertwined branches. On the east side, there is a high relief carved urn, while the west side features an obelisk. The inscription commemorates John Dimery, a clothier, who passed away in 1801. This tomb is a well-preserved and sophisticated memorial.
