Description
This is an unidentified chest tomb located in the churchyard, about 2 metres northeast of the chancel of the Church of St Peter. It dates from the early 19th century and is made of sandstone and blue lias. The tomb features a ledger top with a moulded cornice and an entablature. Fluted columns divide the east and west sides and are set at the corners with projecting arris. This profile is repeated on the moulded plinth. The north and south ends are convex, and there are inset blue lias panels on the east and west sides. The tomb shows significant spalling, and the inscriptions have eroded. It presents a variation on the usual design of chest tombs.
