Description
This is a group of three headstones located in the churchyard about 12 meters southeast of the tower of the Church of All Saints on Church Street. They date from the 18th century and are made of ham stone, each 150 mm thick with chamfered edges on the back faces.
The northernmost headstone is a double stone featuring decorated edges and a central division, with semi-circular heads on the panels that include angel heads and an urn in between. The inscription is worn but indicates it commemorates the son of John and Elizabeth, who died in 1761. The center stone is similar but is a single headstone; it has an angel head at the top, and its edges are contoured to fit. This stone commemorates Fortune Braine, who died in 1746. The southernmost headstone has a similarly shaped top, but all its decoration is incised rather than carved, and its inscriptions have worn away.
