Description

There are two monuments located in the churchyard, approximately 9 metres north-east of the tower of the Church of St Mary the Virgin. Both monuments date from the 18th century.

The first is the Terrell monument, a chest tomb made of Ham stone ashlar. The base is buried, and it features one fielded panel on each end and side, with panelled pilasters on the flanks and no frieze. The hipped top has moulded coving and rounded leading edges. This monument commemorates William Terrell, who died in 1781, Thomas Terrell, who died in 1796, and others.

The second is the Chaffey headstone, located about one metre south of the Terrell monument. This headstone is also made of Ham stone ashlar and is approximately 100mm thick. It has a floriated frame and a double semi-circular arched top, adorned with an angel and wings, an hourglass, and flanked by scrolls. It commemorates William Chaffey, who died in 1790, and his wife.
