Description

The William Withycombe chest tomb, located in the churchyard about 15 metres south of the porch of the Church of St John the Baptist, dates from the late 18th century. It is constructed from Ham stone and possibly Portland stone. The tomb features a flat top with a cyma reversa moulded cornice and a sunk plinth. The end pilasters have fielded panels. On the north front, there is an inserted slate slab with good lettering that commemorates William Withycombe of Bickham, who died in 1796. The original panel on the north front is missing, and there is a lias panel on the west end.
