Description

The Staple monument is a chest tomb located about 13 metres east of the chancel at the Church of St Mary the Virgin in East Stoke. It dates from the 19th century and is made of Ham stone. The tomb features a stepped base with a moulded kerb, a moulded plinth, and one fielded panel on each end and side. It has two-panel pilasters on the flanks and lacks a frieze. The hipped top is adorned with moulded coving and rounded leading edges. This monument commemorates Harriet, the wife of Joseph Staple, who died in 1834, along with others.
