Description
The Price Mausoleum at the Parish Church of St Mor is a square structure built in the 19th century, measuring approximately 4 meters on each side and standing 3.5 meters high. It features a pyramidal slate roof with modern verge boards. The mausoleum is made of squared, snecked granite blocks set on a chamfered plinth and has stepped angle buttresses at the front corners.
The main entrance, located on the south face, is a tall chamfered Tudor arch made of sandstone, which includes a boarded door. Above the door, there is an incised dedicatory inscription across the voussoirs that reads: "As to my latter end I go to seek my jubilee: I bless the good horse Bendigo who built this tomb for me: Richard John Lloyd Price 1887."
On the north face, there is a simple window featuring intersecting tracery made of sandstone, which is secured with an iron grille. Additionally, there is a triangular vent louvre on the rear roof pitch.
