Egyptian caryatid tomb, Fairford Gloucestershire

Tomb honors the Harvey and Telling families within the historic churchyard of St Mary's Church, situated in Fairford, Gloucestershire. This distinctive monument stands out as one-of-a-kind in the Cotswolds region due to its four Greco-Egyptian-style caryatids serving as pillars at each corner of the vault. The earliest documented interment in this burial plot dates back to Ann Telling (died 1805), however, evidence suggests the tomb may actually belong to the 1820s when three members of the Harvey family were laid to rest.
