gerbrygge tombs in the chancel. pevsner gives these a late c13 date c.1270 on stylistic grounds, but if they represent sir william and joan gerbrygge, that is probably too early, as they seem to have died around 1340. even if the tombs were made before their deaths, 70 years may be a bit much. literature claims that the tombs were damaged by time, but they appear much as cotman drew them, and seem mostly unrestored.
