Chest tombs. Three of mid C17 date:
1) Chest tomb. Mid C17 type. Stone with moulded top and base. The south face has a Latin inscription which is almost completely legible. "THOMAS SHARPE FILIUS SU- RICHARDUS SHARPE DUS ECCLESIE DE BECKLEY TUNC TEMPORIS RECTOR POSUIT HOC MONUMENTUM PIETATIS ERGO".
2) Chest tomb. C1644 to Thomas Sharpe. Stone with moulded top slab and base with inscription to south side.
