One of many 18th century stones in the churchyard. This one is very early and I think the inscription reads: "Here lies interred the Bodies of STEPHEN PARTON & ELIZABETH his Wife He Died February 28 1722 Aged 59 Years She Died November 12th 1750 Aged 74 Years...". There are more lines of script but they are illegible to me. As was customary, there are three skulls carved at the top.
