A rectangular mausoleum of the French family is immediately E of the N transept and impinges on the site of the nave of the Dominican church (RO015-030001-). It is a square roofless structure (ext. dims 4.9m E-W; 4.55m N-S; H 2.5m) with a doorway (ext. Wth 1.1m) at the W end of the S wall, and at one time had gables at E and W, the latter with a narrow light (Grose 1791, vol. 2, Pl. 89).
