Description
This is an unidentified chest tomb located in the churchyard, about 3 meters northeast of the porch of the Church of St Michael. It is likely from the late 17th century and made of stone. The lid is slightly weathered and features a moulded edge, with sunk margins on the panels at the sides. The corners of the tomb are adorned with attached Roman Doric columns, while the bottom is concealed by the ground. There was an inscription on one end, but it has weathered away and is no longer legible.
