A large church with a large churchyard around it. We were pleased to find
such splendid tombs inside the building.
At the west end of the south aisle, removed from one of the piers of the nave, is an alabaster wall monument with two tiers of kneeling figures. The lower section shows Edward Moreton (d. 1630), his wife (d. 1633), three sons, three daughters and a child in a burial shroud. The upper section shows Matthew Moreton (d. 1669), his wife (d. 1672), a son, six daughters and a child in a burial shroud.
