An early C19 churchyard monument which probably dates from very close to the recorded death in 1807.
A neo-classical monument cut from Forest of Dean sandstone ashlar. A square base with plinth and cornice carries a sharply tapering obelisk which has the point blunted. The four sides of the base are inscribed within framed panels to Marie, wife of Henry Witherington, died 1807.
Included for its special interest as a very good quality churchyard memorial in the neo-classical style dating from c1807.
