Winchcombe And One Unidentified Monuments Circa 25 Metres North Of North Aisle In Churchyard Of Church Of St Mary

Winchcombe and one unidentified monument are located approximately 25 meters north of the north aisle in the churchyard of the Church of St Mary.

The first monument is a chest tomb from the early to mid 18th century, made of limestone. It features a flat table with a cavetto mould, lyre ends adorned with a cartouche, and a bolection mould panel with floral drops on the north side, as well as a bolection moulded fielded panel on the south side, all resting on a wide cavetto base. Some lettering can be found on the south side, but it is mostly illegible. An 1879 survey mentions Edwin Winchcombe, a clothier, who died in 1739, although the overall design appears to be about twenty years older. This tomb stands alone, separated from other monuments in the area.

The second monument is a small footstone located about 3 meters north of the chest tomb. It likely dates from the late 17th century and is a small stone featuring attractive scrolls, flanked by small 'Ionic' colonettes, and has a deep panel. A date of 1818 is visible, but the stone is certainly much older than this.
