Description

The Ryall Chest Tomb is located 4 meters south-southeast of the southeast corner of the south transept of the Church of Saint James. This chest tomb dates from the mid-18th century and is constructed from Ham stone ashlar. It features a moulded base and fielded panels on each side, with coffered pilasters only on the flanks. The top is heavily moulded and hipped. The tomb commemorates, among others, Christian Ryall, who died in 1761, and John Ryall, who died in 1770, although much of the inscription is badly worn. It is part of a notable group of five tombs.
