Description
This is an early 18th-century chest tomb located in the churchyard, approximately 2 meters northwest of the porch to the Church of St Margaret. It is made of limestone and features a rectangular shape with lyre ends. The sides have fielded panelling, which shows some frost damage. The top of the tomb is cyma moulded, but the inscriptions are illegible.
