Details
SOMERTON CHURCH STREET SP42NE (South side) 2/85 Group of 4 Collinridge memorials approx in E of south aisle of Church of St. James 6V II
4 headstones. Late C17. Limestone and marlstone. Small headstones (2 of limestone: 2 of marlstone) have plain panels below shaped beads, all of which feature a cross standing on a skull flanked by crossed bones. The inscriptions are partly illegible, but commemorate members of the Collingridge family and include the dates 1688 and 1690. The stones are the earliest of a group of approximately 20 memorials plus several footstones to members of the same family, extending to the early C20. Nearly all include a representation of the cross, a very unusual feature before the mid C19, possibly indicating a Recusant connection.
