Ironwork over the gates to the Palmer chapel. Out of focus, but shows the design, with its stylized acorns.

Interior from W. Rebuilt 1788 to designs of John Wing (1728-94), who also designed King's Norton in Leicestershire ( www.leicestershirechurches.co.uk/#/kings-norton-church-le... ). The stained glass in the E. window is Victorian (or later) and somewhat detracts from the Georgian character of the rest of the fittings.

Attributed to Joshua Marshall (1629-1678; Master Mason to the Crown after 1660) on the basis of its similarity to the monument to Lord and Lady Noel at Chipping Campden. By 1640 Palmer was a junior member of the queen's counsel, and sat for Stamford in the Long Parliament, where he protested against the Grand Remonstrance and was briefly sent to the Tower of London. He was made Attorney General on the restoration of Charles II in 1660. For a closer view of the figures, see www.flickr.com/photos/40878011@N07/5190778670/in/set-7215... .
