Just outside the main door of the church to the left are the graves of Marian and Caja Hemar. Marian Hemar was a noted Polish songwriter, poet and entertainer who first found fame in the 1930's. He fled Poland ahead of the German invasion and settled in England, broadcasting to occupied Poland. He continued to broadcast after the war for Radio Free Poland in opposition to the communist regime. He wife Caja was a film actress of great beauty and is perhaps best known today as one of the actresses who held aloft the torch at the beginning of all Columbia Studios films.
Further down the slope are the tombs of the Heath family of Kitlands who have many connections with the church and locality. Further east are the tombs of Josiah Wedgwood III of Leith Hill Place, grandson of the great potter of the same name, and members of his family including Margaret Vaughan Williams, his daughter and mother of Ralph Vaughan Williams.
