Description
Two pedestal tombs and a headstone are located about 10 meters south of the north gateway to the churchyard of the Church of St Mary. These monuments date from the 18th century and are made of limestone.
The first tomb, closer to the gateway, features a square pedestal with a flat top that has a moulded edge. It is set diagonally and supported by two scrolled supporters, although two others are missing. There is a decorative frieze on a larger square base slab, but the inscription is not legible.
The second tomb, approximately 2.5 meters south of the first, has an oblong pedestal topped with a cyma-mould flat dome and a moulded edge. It includes fluted pilasters, one with a circular raised panel and the other with a square raised panel, along with a cavetto base, all resting on a base slab. This tomb is dedicated to Elizabeth Mills, who died at the age of 8 in 1759.
Additionally, there is a small headstone located about 1 meter north of the first tomb. It has a cambered top and features modelled decoration around a panel with a raised mould, flaring at the base. The inscription is also not legible.
