C18 Leicestershire slate headstone mounted on the south wall of the tower. -Here lyeth the Body of Catherine the Wife of Thomas Henworth who Departed this Life Dec 25th 1732 Aged 59 Years. Corruption Earth and wormes, shall but Refine this Flesh/ Till my Tryumphant Spirit comes, to put it on aFresh. Here lyeth the Body of the said Thomas Henworth who departed this life Sepbr 19th 1741 Age 59-. The engraving that records Thomas is not as accomplished in style as that of Catherine. This may be the work of village engravers of limited literacy, since both overrun the width available. (Photo May 2010).
