Chesham tomb lid

|
I was interested in this tombstone as it is carved to look like the lid of a classical sarcophagus. Those lids were carved to look like a classical roof with tegulae, imbrices and antefixes.

The light was poor for photographing tombstones but I wasn't certain when I'd be back.

Clock tower
mausoleum?
| |
|
This building sits in the corner of the churchyard of St Mary's Chesham. I'm assuming it is a mausoleum but there is no inscription.
teaching?
| |
|
This fascinating footstone in St Mary's churchyard, Chesham seems to show someone teaching. Wikipedia suggests it id the tomb of Daniel King, teacher in Chesham's first Sunday School.
