Description
There are two identical chest tombs for the Hill family located in the churchyard, 8 meters north of the north aisle of the Church of All Saints. These tombs date from the early 19th century and are made of dressed stone. They feature concave moulded plinths and plain oblong chests with grooved pilasters. Each chest has inset inscription panels on the north and south sides. The south chest is dedicated to Abraham Hill and is dated 1801, though the inscriptions have significantly decayed. The north chest also has decayed inscriptions, with a fragment that reads "Isaac Hill, 1805."
