Description
This is a group of four chest tombs located in the churchyard, three meters south of the south aisle of the Church of All Saints. The tombs date from the 17th and 18th centuries and are made of dressed stone.
The four oblong chests all have plinths that are sunken into the ground. The two tombs closest to the south aisle are from the 17th century. One features a slab top with inscriptions on all four faces, while the other has fluting, an achievement, an entablature, and a large hipped slab top. The two 18th-century chests to the south are simpler in design, with one displaying pilasters adorned with drop ornamentation, reflecting the style of Robert Adam.
