The slab is surrounded by a complete rectangle of wrought iron railings 4 x 2 bays, with the main standards having cast vase finials. The spike railings are set into a dwarf stone wall and have a top rail.
Included as an early C19 churchyard monument which retains its full railings and is the burial vault of an influential local family.
