Description
The Watts Chest Tomb, located 6 metres north of the east corner of the nave at the Church of Saint Margaret, is a chest tomb dating from the mid-18th century. It is constructed from Ham stone and features a rectangular shape with semi-cylindrical ends. The tomb has a moulded plinth at the base and proud-standing panels, with one panel on each side and a curved panel at each end, all set within frame mouldings. The top is moulded and shaped in a hipped design. This tomb commemorates Thomas Watts and his wife Elizabeth, although their death dates are not legible; the former's date might be 1757.
