Description
This pair of headstones is located approximately 3 meters southeast of the east corner of the south aisle of the Church of St. Mary. They likely date from the 17th century and early 18th century and are made of ironstone. The headstone on the left features an inscription plaque framed by draperies and topped with cherubs, along with an oval cartouche. The inscription is illegible but appears to date from 1706. The headstone on the right has a square plaque in a moulded frame, which is surmounted by scrolls and a cherub's head, but it no longer has any inscription.
