Two Monuments In Churchyard, About 14 Metres South Of Nave, Church Of St Mary The Virgin

There are two monuments located in the churchyard about 14 metres south of the nave of the Church of St Mary the Virgin. The first, known as the Sprackett monument, is a chest tomb from the 17th century made of Ham stone. It features a moulded plinth, with one ovolo-mould panel on each face, plain pilasters with incised foliage on the sides, and a carved crest on the east panel. There is no frieze, and it has a cyma-recta coving to its hipped top. This monument commemorates William Sprackett, who died in 1614, along with other family members who passed away in the 18th century.

The second monument, also a chest tomb and from the 19th century, is located 15 metres south and is also made of Ham stone. Its base is buried, and it has plain panels—one on each end and two on each side—that are slightly convex curved, with reeded pilasters. It features moulded coving to its hipped top and commemorates George Sprackett, who died in 1809, along with others.
