Description
There are three adjacent chest tombs located approximately 1.5 metres southeast of the porch of the Church of St Andrew. These tombs date from the 17th century and are constructed from granite ashlar. Each tomb is rectangular in shape and features flat lids. The lid of the central tomb is soffit-moulded, while the other two have hollow chamfers. All three lids are inscribed around the top, creating a border, but only the southern tomb's inscription is legible, revealing the Christian names John and William along with the date 1605. The northern tomb also has inscriptions on the sides, one of which commemorates the death of Mary Larne in 1688.
