Cadw's description
Location
On the S side of the chancel.
Exterior
Two low C17 freestone table tombs with moulded legs. The capstones have edges enriched with billet ornamentation. The tomb on the N side abuts the chancel wall. Its slab has an inscription now mostly illegible but commemorates a member of the Lloyd family of Henfryn. On its S side is a similar slab commemorating [Bell?] Lloyd of Henfryn, (d.1651).
Reason for designation
Listed as exceptionally early table tombs and as part of the historic context of the church.
