Tombstone detail (1774), Ewell churchyard
The winged skull is a fairly common motif on 18th-century tombstones. The stone commemorates Sarah Burges, who died at the age of 21. I find it hard to believe that her husband John (also named on the stone) was in any way comforted by the image.
The date given - if I've read it correctly - is 'Mar. ye 20th, 1774'.

This one marks the grave of:

Ewell: the tower of the ruined church
Apart from this tower, little is left of Ewell's medieval parish church. The tower is somewhat hemmed in by tall conifers, so that even in mid-December I was unable to get an open view from a distance. In the area around the tower (at the southern end of the churchyard) there are dozens (possibly hundreds) of Georgian tombstones - so perhaps the old church was not abandoned until its replacement was built.
The current church dates from 1848, and stands a few hundred yards further north, at the far end of the extensive churchyard.
