Description

The Goldly monument is a chest tomb located in the churchyard, 4 metres east of the south transept of the Church of All Saints. It dates from the early 19th century and is made of Doulting stone. The tomb features a moulded plinth and reeded pilasters that flank plain panels, with two panels on each side and one at each end. It has an undecorated frieze and a shallow hipped top with rounded edges, adorned with moulded cavetto coving. The monument commemorates the Goldly family, with the earliest decipherable date being 1809, although the inscriptions are badly eroded.
