Description

There are two unidentified chest tombs located in the churchyard, approximately 8 and 9 meters southeast of the porch of the Church of All Saints. Both tombs date from the 17th century and are made of Ham and Keinton stone. The bases are buried, and each tomb features plaid panels on all sides, with coffer-panelled pilasters on the flanks. There are no friezes, and the tops are moulded with hipped shapes and rounded leading edges. The inscriptions on the tombs have eroded away over time.
