Description

This description covers a pair of chest tombs from the 17th century, located 17 to 19 metres southwest of the south porch of the Church of St Lawrence. The first tomb, which is closest to the church, features a flat top with a moulded cornice. Its north side has been demolished, the east side is damaged, and the south side has an inscribed panel that is now illegible. The west side displays a billetted arcade, which was partially obscured by ivy during the survey in May 1983.

The second tomb is made of Ham stone with inserted blue lias panels and has a ledger top. The inscription panel on the north face is damaged, and the south side is also illegible. The arcade at the west end contains an unidentified coat of arms, while the arcade at the east end is damaged and largely obscured by ivy at the time of the survey.
