Description
The Jey monument is a chest tomb located in the churchyard about 2 meters north of the north aisle of the Church of St Barnabas. It dates from the early 19th century and is made of Portland stone, designed in a Puginesque style. The tomb features a moulded stone plinth, plain sides and flanks with incised panel borders, and Gothic style pilasters. It has a frieze adorned with Gothic bosses and a shallow moulded stepped top. The inscription, presented in appropriate Gothic lettering, commemorates Robert Jey, who died in 1849, along with other family members. The Jey family were notable as the 19th-century doctors in Queen Camel.
