Description
The Thomas Meade Chest Tomb is located in the churchyard, 7 metres north of the tower of the Church of St. Lawrence. This chest tomb dates from the early 19th century and is made of Doulting stone. It features a rectangular plinth with six panels positioned between two-stage buttresses. The tomb has hollow chamfered pointed arches with heraldic shields at both ends and slate infill panels set back on the sides of a gothic cross. The top is flat and moulded. The surrounding area is paved with rounded top edging stones, although the railings have been removed. The tomb is dedicated to Thomas Meade and his wife Catherine, both of whom died in 1839, as well as their daughter Mary Meade, who died in 1849, and another daughter, also named Mary Meade, who died in 1872.
