Cockayne Grave A.jpg

Originally the grave of William Cockayne, senior.  The uppermost inscription relates to him, but is nearly indecipherable due to the loss of most of the lead letters.

The lower inscription commemorates Edward Shepherd Cockayne, second son of William Cockayne, senior.  It is still decipherable, but in poor condition.
