Description

The Robert Hancock chest tomb, located 6 metres south-west of the south porch of the Church of St Lawrence, dates from the early 19th century and has been partly reset. It is constructed from Ham stone and Doulting stone. The tomb features a ledger top, a moulded cornice, and a plinth, with curved inset panels on the east and west ends that display Maltese crosses. The south side has an inserted panel of Forest of Dean stone inscribed to Robert Hancock, who died in 1825, while the north side is inscribed to Jane Hancock, who died in 1849. The cornice has damage at the north-west corner.
