A pair of 13th century gravestones incised with crosses in St Lawrence's churchyard, Eyam. From the iconography it may be possible that these are Knights Templar coffin lids. They certainly pre-date the many plague graves from the 17th century. They are very likely to have been moved from their original location, and date from the earliest parts of this building.
