TEWIN CHURCHFIELD ROAD TL 21 SE (South side) Tewin 5/133 Grimston Memorial and - Railed Enclosure about 25m E of Church of St. Peter GV II
Chest tomb. Rt Hon Lady Anne Grimston of Gorhambury, d.1717. Limestone ashlar. Moulded plinth and capping. Gadrooned corner balusters. Fielded panelled sides. Inscription on one long side. Arms and skull and cross bones in relief on short sides. Inscribed capping. Spear headed railed enclosure. Outer railings were erected in 1870 because of the number of visitors to this tomb who came to see the trees growing out of the S side of the tomb which were reputed to owe their existence to the last and allegedly blasphemous words of Lady Grimston. (East Herts Archaeological Society Transactions, vol.2 pt.2, 1903, p.165).
