Description
The William Cook chest tomb is located in the churchyard, 10 metres south of the south porch of the Church of St Congar. The tomb features a remaining inscription dated 1807, although the chest itself is likely from the mid 18th century. It is made of dressed stone and has a plinth that is below ground level. The chest is adorned with decorative corner pilasters and a central pilaster on each side, along with a moulded cornice. The top of the tomb is a hipped slab that is moulded around its edge. The only surviving inscription is found on the south side.
