Description

The Hitchcock family monument is located in the churchyard about 5 meters east of the chancel of the Church of St Margaret. This early 19th-century memorial, which may have been altered in the early 20th century, is part of chest tombs that have been reset. It features a rendered rubble wall with a flat stone coping, and one side of the chest tomb is inset. The monument includes a moulded cornice and plinth, with fluted pilasters flanking a lias tablet inscribed to Louisa Hitchcock, who died in 1827, along with other family members. A pencil drawing from 1819, likely a copy, depicts a chest tomb in this location with railings.
