Description
These nineteenth century iron railings, at St Dingat's Church (NPRN 104065), are Grade II listed and enclose the graves of the Jones family. The rails are situated around three sides of the enclosure, which is against the north churchyard wall. Measurements are given as 5ft 6 ins tall. The railings enclose various tombs, including a slab to Rees Jones, mercer (died 1852), a chest tomb with reeded decoration, two headsones and two ridge-backed graves: one to John Rhys Jones of Albert House, 10 High Street (died 1910). The railings have spike finials and a band of opposed scrolls under the top rail. There is a matching gate on east side whose top rail is curved upwards in the centre.
