It is an altar tomb of Purbeck marble ; the slab athe top is plain, and has never had any inscription or brassa brass inscription ran round the edge and within spendlessimilar to those in the seal of Sir William ; on each side of th<base of the tomb were brass shields of arms ; but the escutcheon. FAMILY OF IIOO. 129 and inscriptions had been taken away before the visitation ofFlnlpot and Owen in 1634.

The other portions of thecornice are debased Gothic, very rudely carved. In the centreon the south side is a boss with the figure of a woman playingon the virginals.
