Description
There are two small tombstones flanking the priest's door of the Church of Saint Oswald's. These late medieval tombstones are made of stone and are small rectangular shapes, propped up against the south wall of the chancel, one on each side of the door. On the left tombstone, there is a cross on a stepped base along with the letters "T. B." The right tombstone features a badly weathered cross and the letters "A. B." These tombstones likely commemorate members of the de Barden family.
