Description

There are two chest tombs located in the churchyard, approximately 16 to 17 metres south-south-west of the south transept of the Church of St Peter and St Paul.

The first, known as the Anstice monument, dates from around 1700 and is made of Ham stone. It features a moulded plinth and panels with ovolo-mould frames, with plain pilasters on the sides and no frieze. The tomb has a heavy hipped top with cyma-recta coving and commemorates Edmond Anstice, who died in 1699, and his son, who died in 1734.

The second tomb, the Damer monument, is from the later 18th century and is also constructed from Ham stone. It has a moulded plinth, flank panels with egg-and-dart frames, and baluster-shaped ends, with no frieze. The top is almost flat with rounded leading edges and has moulded coving. This monument commemorates Damer (7), who died in 1776.
