The grave of Sybil and Henry Clarke is included in the Guide to the Minster Grounds leaflet. It is listed as follows:-
The Grave Of Sybil and Henry Clarke: this long, thin gravestone dated 1684 marks the site of Sybil and Henry who both died aged 112! Were they man and wife, twins; were they really that old? (visit link)

The Church Warden who gives tours of the church and grounds was very knowledgeable and interesting to talk to, but could not give any more information about the ages recorded on the gravestone.

The following link shows some further investigation but that raises more questions than answers. (visit link)
