Lady Eleanor
Percy (1328) This is the
famous Percy Tomb, said to be the most
splendid of British Decorated funerary
monuments, but the attribution is uncertain;
heraldry, however, makes a date after 1339
likely. There is no effigy but the top slab
of the tomb chest which was removed in 1825
in the amost certainly mistaken belief that
this was a later addition, bore the indent
of a brass of a priest
