Description
The Vibart family monument is a chest tomb located in the churchyard about 3.5 meters east of the chancel of the Church of St Andrew and St Mary in Pitminster Village. It dates from around 1800 and is made of Portland stone, with possibly lias panels. The tomb features a ledger top, a moulded cornice, and a projecting chamfered plinth, all set on a single step. The north and south faces are divided into two sections by chamfered pilasters with run-out stops, and there are inset lias panels that are eroded in parts. The south-west panel is inscribed to Emma Vibart, who died in 180-, along with other family members on the north face. There is also evidence of painted outline decoration at the east end. Inside the church, there are several other monuments dedicated to the Vibart family.
