Description
This is a chest tomb located in the churchyard, approximately 18 meters south of the tower of the Church of St Peter and St Paul. It dates from the 17th to 18th century and is likely made of Ham stone. At the time of the survey in August 1985, the tomb was completely covered by ivy, but it is believed to be intact beneath the vegetation.
