Description

This is an unidentified chest tomb located 7 meters south of the southwest corner of the south transept at the Church of Saint James. It dates from the early 18th century and is made of Ham stone ashlar. The tomb features a carved moulded base, with one heavily fielded panel on each side and at each end. There are panelled pilasters on the flanks only, and it has a boldly moulded hipped top with a steeper pitch. The family name is now indecipherable, but it commemorates individuals including Nicholas, who died in 1724, and Elizabeth, who died in 1725. This tomb is part of a notable group of five tombs.
