Description

The Nicholas Grobham tomb is a chest tomb located 3 metres south-west of the porch of the Church of St Mary, dating from around 1600. It features a flat top made of Ham stone, with sides constructed from Dundry stone. The tomb has a plain chamfered cornice and is otherwise unadorned, except for an attached brass plaque at the east end that commemorates Nicholas Grobham, who died in 1594, and his wife Eleanor. They also have a brass memorial inside the church. Their son established the almshouses in Bishop's Lydeard.
