There were also six vicars, besides chantry priests, in this church.

Seite 35 - On the north side of the transept towards the south, are the remains of two chantreys, now thrown into one. They were the burial place of the Metham family, their arms are found in the wall, as also those of Hamilton with whom they intermarried. The recumbent figures found here, were originally in the choir. Two of them are Methams, the other is a Saltmarsh. The piscinas remain, and the division walls may yet be traced. The whole is now, and has long been used as the burial place of the family of...
