The Tomb of Jane, Lady Bray

On the right hand side of the chancel stands the church's only panelled altar tomb, the brass from which is now mounted on a board in the Lady Chapel.

The tomb is of Jane, Lady Bray.

The brass is interesting as a "palimpsest" brass, i.e. one which has been reused, and the plate was part of the effigy of a senior ecclesiastic in vestments, so was presumably acquired in the disposal of monastic effects during the Dissolution.
