Description
The Blofield Monument is a headstone located approximately 6 meters north of the north aisle of the Church of St. Mary. It dates from the mid-18th century and is made of limestone. The monument features two round-headed and shouldered inscription panels, which are topped by three winged cherubs' heads and a segmental pediment in relief. The inscriptions on the panels have worn down to the point of being indecipherable.
