Inscription H60 Index Plan < Prev. Next >

Headstone, oval top, with checked and scotia shoulders. Similar to H61, which stands beside it. It is decorated at top centre by a pouting cherub's head, over wings and surrounded by swirls of drapery. The decoration and stone are very weathered and almost all traces of an inscription have disappeared. The style of the stone suggests an early 18th century date.

[ Inscription almost entirely illegible, but where the surname would be it seems to end with the letters O and Y or N. At the bottom right, the final word of the inscription "Age" is also just visible]

[This may be a stone to one of the COMPTON, JOHNSON or CLAPTON families of North Leigh ]
