TO MY GREAT FRIEND,
JOSEPH SIM EARLE,
WHO HELPED ME TO COLLECT MATERIAL,
THIS LIST OF SUFFOLK BRASSES
IS DEDICATED.
A 2
189
PEEFAOE.
mHIRTEEN years after the publication of my
List of Monumental Brasses in Norfolk
Churches, I am able to add a companion volume on
those which remain in the adjoining County of Suffolk.
The list has been compiled, after an examination of
rubbings made by me, when collecting material for the
Church Heraldry of Suffolk, which is still only in
manuscript. As many brasses have been brought to
light in the County of Norfolk since 1900, I do not
doubt but that those who visit Suffolk Churches in
search of such, will be able to send me the description
of some which, not having been found in my visitation,
are not recorded in the list ; though such may possibly
be mentioned in one of the appendices.
I am indebted to my friend, Mr. Mill Stephenson,
for many valuable additions to the Suffolk volume.
He has kindly lent me the woodblocks, and helped me
to compile the introduction, which will be a valuable
help to those interested , in the study of armour and
costume. To him alone is due the chronological list ;
and having examined all the rubbings of Suffolk
brasses in the British Museum and elsewhere, the
valuable additional notes are all his. With his vast
knowledge of the subject, the result of such indefati-
gable labour will be, I am sure, generally appreciated,
and I hardly know how to tender to him the thanks
which are his due.
VI PREFACE.
With regard to the arrangement of the list, I must
quote the words of my preface to the Norfolk
volume: — "The churches are placed in alphabetical
order; in each church the effigial and subject brasses
being given before the inscriptions, each class according
to date ; then follows a description of what still remains
of each brass, as also of what is known to be lost.
The date in Clarendon type is that of the engraving
of the brass, usually also the date of decease. Every
genealogical reference in the list, unless enclosed within
a rectangular bracket, or authoritatively specified, is
recorded on the brass. The position in the church is
stated, as also the size of the e&gy or inscription in
inches."

INTEODUOTIOISr.
mHE County of Suffolk does not contain so many-
examples of this class of memorial as the
adjacent County of Norfolk, nor is it so rich in early
and fine specimens of the brazier's skill. The small
inscriptions and chalices, so characteristic, and which
so frequently occur in the latter county, are almost
entirely wanting here. There are, roughly speaking,
203 brasses with effigies, and about 230 inscriptions.
Military, — The military figures number forty-seven,
the earliest is that of Sir Robert de Bures, 1302, at
Acton, who is represented cross-legged in complete
chain mail, with the exception of his knee-pieces,
which are richly ornamented, and probably made of
what is termed " cuir-bouilli,"
or boiled leather; over his ar-
mour he wears a long surcoat
confined round the waist by a
girdle, the mail hood and haw-
berk are not in one piece, as
is shown by the hood slightly
overlapping the surcoat; on his
left arm is a large shield con-
cave to the body, charged with
the arms of Bures, and sup-
ported by an ornamental strap
passing over the right shoulder
and crossing the body diagonally ; a large sword hangs
from a richly ornamented bawdrick, which lies loosely

INTRODUCTION.
on the hips; on the thigh appears the highly orna-
mented pourpoint, worn beneath the armour, and
composed of embroidered silk or sarcenet ; his feet rest
on a lion, and over the insteps are buckled the single-
pointed or " pryck " spur. This is perhaps the finest
and most beautiful figure of the cross-legged period.
The next figure in point of
date is a mutilated example,
in so-called banded mail, of a
member of the Bacon family,
c. 1820, at Gorleston, also
cross-legged, and illustrating
the gradual addition of plate
armour, the armpits, arms,
and elbows being protected
by steel plates covering the
mail; the body armour is
covered by the surcoat, which
is in this case again confined
round the waist by a band,
and the sword with enriched
scabbard is suspended from
a bawdrick hanging loosely
round the hips ; the knee-
pieces are probably of leather,
whilst just enough of the legs
remain to show that the shins
were defended by steel plates ;
on his left arm is a small
heater-shaped shield with the
arms of the Bacon family
thereon, and suspended by a
narrow belt crossing the body
diagonally; to his shoulders

are attached the ailettes, or little wings, edged with
fringe, and each charged with a plain cross, being the
last example of the use on brass figures of these curious
appendages.
The further development
of plate armour is well illus-
trated by the figures of the
camail period, at Lethering-
ham, Playford, Rougham,
Stoke by Nayland, and Bur-
gate. All these figures, with
the exception of Stoke by
Nayland, where the head is
bare, are armed in pointed
bascinets, to which the camail
is attached by means of cords
|^^^^=a passing through staples; the
arms and legs are encased in
complete plate, and over the
body armour is worn the
jupon, at Letheringham and
Playford charged with the
arms of Wingfield and Fel-
brigg respectively. All are
represented as wearing mous-
taches, whilst Sir William
Tend ring, at Stoke by Nay-
land, has in addition a long
beard. Of figures in complete
plate armour there are five ex-
amples, at Barsham, Mendle-
sham, Debenham (half -figure),
Easton, and Yoxford. These are all in bascinets, plate
gorgets, breast-plates, roundels at the armpits, fan-shaped

INTRODUCTION.
elbow-pieces, skirts of taces, thigh, knee, and shin
pieces, with long pointed sollerets and rowel spurs;
all have swords, supported from belts crossing the
taces diagonally, and most
have daggers. The figure at
Mendlesham {see illustration)
is bearded, an unusual feature,
and the one at Barsham wears
the collar of SS.
Between the dates of 1430
and 1460, there is no example,
but between 1460 and 1470,
when local peculiarities begin
to appear, there are two curi-
ous specimens at Knoddishall
and Great Thurlow, which
show the cumbersome plate
armour of the period, the
defences for the shoulders
and arms being greatly in-
creased in size and number;
the taces are now shorter, and
have strapped to them large
plates covering the thighs
called " tuiles " ; the knee-
pieces, too, are increased,
having plates above and be-
low, while the sollerets are
long and pointed.
The period of 1480—1490
is well illustrated by the
three figures at Sotterley, Holbrook, and Fressingfield,
which are almost similar in detail and workmanship.
They are remarkable for the number of plates of
Barsham.

which the shoulder defences consist,
the strengthening of the breast-
plate by the *' demi-placcates," and
the increased size of the elbow and
knee-pieces. In the examples at
Holbrook and Fressingfield, the feet
rest on hounds, in the place of lions
as before, whilst the Sotterley figure
is represented as standing on a
mound.
At Assington is a local figure, c.
1500, which forms a link between
the last described and those pro-
duced during the
next twenty years,
of which there are
examples at Net-
tlestead and Little
Wenham, the date of the latter being
1514. In these figures the shoulder
pieces are of smaller size, and have
upright ridges. The mail skirt now
re-appears, the tuiles decrease in size,
whilst the sollerets, now termed sab-
batons, are very wide and rounded
at the toes. To this period also belong
the figures at Kenton and Denstone,
both dated 1524, wearing tabards
charged with the family arms.
' About the year 1520 no fewer than
seven examples of the local school
occur, of which one at Belstead is
dated 1518, and another at Little
Thurlow is probably of the same

period; these are followed by four
figures, dated between the years 1525
and 1530, occurring at Acton, Little
Bradley, Great Thurlow, and Little
Waldingfield, all of which may have
come from the same workshop. Another
mutilated example of much the same
date occurs at
Euston.
After this, until
the time when
Elizabeth came to
the throne, there
is a gap in the
series. However,
during her reign
there is no lack
of examples, ex-
tending from 1557
until the early
Acton.

of James I. During this time
changes in the fashion of dress
necessitated corresponding changes
in the style of armour. The vari-
ous pieces now differ much in
shape and size, and are more or
less richly ornamented. The taces
and mail skirt disappear by de-
grees, whilst the tuiles increase
in size, until they are finally
superseded by the introduction
of trunk hose, when the tassets
alone appear fastened to the

breastplate. This is well shown on the figure of
Francis Clopton at Long Melford, 1577. Other examples
showing the gradual development occur at Hawstead,
Sir William Drury, 1557, whose armour is much orna-
mented with scroll work ; at Brandish, 1559 and 1560
{see illustration), a pair of similar figures, representing
members of the Colby family ; at Braiseworth, Alexander
Newton, 1569, a well-executed figure with head on hel-
met; at Barrow, Sir Clement Heigham, 1570, and at
Depden, George Waldegrave and SirThomas Jermyn,1572;
the three latter kneeling figures. Other examples are
at Sotterley, 1592, Easton, 1584, Ashbocking, 1585,
Wrentham, 1593, Benhall, 1611, and Mildenhall, 1618.
Ecclesiastics. — These are poorly represented in the
county, there being but eleven examples, of these four
are in eucharistic vestments. The first is at Brandish,
of Esmond de Burnedissh, c. 1360; followed by that at
Lid gate, c. 1380, once in the head of a cross ; Polstead,
c. 1440; and Campsea Ash, Alexander Inglisshe, 1504,
who holds a chalice on which is a wafer marked with a
cross. At Bury St. Edmund's, St. Mary's, is a figure of
Archdeacon Fynexs, 1514, in cassock, surplice, and
almuce. Academical costume is represented at five
places : Melton, c. 1430, where the ecclesiastic accom-
panies his parents; Pakefield, a half figure of Richard
Folcard, 1451 ; Barningham, William Goche, 1499 ;
Monewden, Thomas Reve, D.D. {see illustration), who
appears in his doctor's robes; and a son kneeling with
his parents, c. 1530, at Worlingworth. Of post-
Reformation divines, besides that at Monewden, there
are examples at Stonham Aspall, John Metcalfe, 1606 ;
and Eyke, Henry Mason, 1619, both in preaching gowns.
In this section may be included the chalices, at Rendham,
1523 {see illustration), and Gazeley, c. 1530.

Judicial. — There is one example only, and that is at
Eyke, John Staverton, Baron of the Exchequer, c. 1430,
in judicial robes ; nevertheless, mention must be made of
the Chief Baron of the Exchequer, and Speaker of the
Parliament, in the person of Sir Clement Heigham, at
Barrow, 1570, who is represented in armour.
Legal. — Of strictly legal gentlemen there is but one,
Robert Southwell, 1514, at Barham, who is styled
" apprenticius ad leges," and is represented in civil
dress. In this class may also be
included two notaries, both in the
church of St. Mary Tower, Ipswich ;
the earlier of the two being an
unnamed figure, c. 1475, and the
other that of Robert Wymbyll, 1506 ;
both have inkhorn and pencase at-
tached to their girdles.
Civilians. — These are, for the
most part, represented as accom-
panied by their wife, or wives. The
earliest is a figure at Pakefield to
John Bowf, c. 1417, who is repre-
sented with short hair, wearing a
long tunic with close-fitting sleeves.
Between 1420 and 1430, the tunic
becomes shorter, the sleeves greatly
increase in size at the elbow, remain-
ing tight at the wrists, in shape
resembling balloons, exemplified at
Long Melford, c. 1420, by a member of the Clopton
family, and by an unknown civilian at Melton, c. 1430.
After the middle of the century, the sleeves of the
tunic again become close-fitting, as at Walton, William
Tabard, 1459, and elsewhere ; including the two kneel-

St. Mary Tower.

Notary, 1506.

ing figures at Ampton and Bury St. Edmund's, St. Mary's,
both c. 1480, the one presumably a member of the Coket
family, the other of the Smythe family, who wears the
Yorkist collar with the lion of March as a pendant. Of
this period there is one half -figure at Hales worth, John
Everard, 1476.
Towards the close of the century, the local peculiar-
ities, as in the case of the military figures, become
strongly marked, and of these the
most striking examples are the very
curious figures at Euston, c. 1480
(see illustration), and Occold, Wil-
liam Corbald, c. 1490, where may be
noticed the peculiar treatment of
the hair, and the fur lining of the
tunic and sleeves. The numerous
figures at Orford do not appear to
belong to the local type ; all are in
gowns trimmed and lined with fur,
having wide sleeves. To these may
be added the fine figure at Little
Waldingfield of John Colman, 1506.
During the next thirty years the
local peculiarities are again appar-
ent, as exemplified by instances
at Worlingham, Nicholas Wrenne,
1511, a broken figure at Euston,
c. 1520, and Wilby, c. 1530; then
between 1540 and 1550, there are
examples at Lakenheath, Lowestoft,
Little Waldingfield, Pettaugh, and
Stratford St. Mary (see illustration).
Figures of civilians of the Elizabethan period are
numerous, the chief characteristic being a fur-lined
Little Waldingfield.
Jokn Colman, 1506.
XXIV INTRODUCTION.
gown, with long false sleeves, more or less ornamented.
Good examples are at Orford, Petistree, various churches
in Ipswich, Hadleigh, Denham near Eye, Aldeburgh,
and Ixworth. There is a little half-figure at Fornham
All Saints, of Thomas Barwick, M.D., 1599, holding
in his right hand a stafF or cane. About this time, or
a little later, the gown gives place to the doublet, trunk
hose, and short cloak, the common dress of the gentry
of the period, and apparently of yeomen, as exemplified
at Honington, George Duke, gentleman, 1594 (see
illustration), whose doublet is richly ornamented, and
who carries a sword ; at Middle-
ton, Anthony Pettow, yeoman,
1610, whose dress is similar in
style, but much plainer, and
without a sword; at Yoxford,
Anthony Cooke, 1613; and at
Mickfield, Peter Preston, 1616.
John Eldred, the well-known
traveller, buried at Great Sax-
, „ ham, 1632, is in similar costume,
Fornham All Saints.
Thomas Barwick, M.D., ^^^ ^^ P^^ce of the cloak wears
1^^^- the gown. The figure of Robert
Alfounder, gentleman, at East Bergholt, 1639, is the
only example which shows the costume worn by gentle-
men during the earlier years of the reign of Charles I. ;
he appears in a doublet and cloak with riding breeches
in the place of the trunk hose, and with top boots, spurs,
and large stirrup-guards.
Ladies. — Of single figures of ladies there are about
forty representations ; a greater number, more especially
in the late period, accompany their husbands. The
earliest is a small figure at Wrentham to Ele Bowet,
1400, in reticulated head-dress, wearing a long gown.

buttoned down the front, gathered in at the neck,
and having wide open sleeves ; to this follows the
large figure of a lady at Stoke by Nay land, c. 1400,
which also appears in the reticulated head-dress, but
with the addition of curls resting on the shoulders,
sideless cote-hardie and mantle; followed very closely
by the figure at Rougham of
Margery Drury, 1405, and
that at Burgate of Eleanor
de Burgate, 1409. These are
in costume very similar in
style, but with the crespine
head-dress and veil. Small
figures of ladies without
mantles, mostly with veil
head-dresses, wearing gowns
with sleeves gradually in-
creasing in size, occur at
Pakefield, c. 1417 ; Long
Melford, c. 1420, probably of
a young unmarried lady, with
a cap ; Melton and Eyke,
both c. 1430; and a half-
figure at Debenham, c. 1425.
The horned head-dress and
close-fitting gown first appears
at Yoxford,
on the figure
of Maud
Norwich
1428; a late
example
Rougham. being at ^ono Melford.

INTRODUCTION.
Maud Jenney, 1460. The costume of a widow is well
exemplified on the brass of Alice Bryan at Acton,
1435 ; at Great Thurlow, c. 1460 [see illustration), by
two figures; at Wickham-Skeitli, c. 1530, a kneeling
figure; and at Darsham, by Anne Bedingfield, 1641.
About the year 1480, the large butterfly head-dress
comes into vogue, it is frequently accompanied by
a dress with a low bodice, which varies in shape as
much then as now ; as at Sotterley, Anne Playters,
1479 ; Fressingfield, Elizabeth
Brewes, 1489 ; and Euston, c. 1480
{see illustration). At Long Melford
are the figures of two ladies of
the Clopton family, whose gowns
and mantles are elaborately orna-
mented with heraldic devices. To
this succeeds the kennel-shaped or
pedimental head-dress, which is
exceedingly common in various
forms between the years 1490 and
1530, generally accompanied by a
close-fitting dress, more or less
trimmed with
fur, confined
round the waist
by a girdle with
ornamented
buckles and long ends, terminating
in pomanders, &c., &c. Good examples
are at Barham, Cecily Southwell, and
at Little Wenham, Jane Brewes, both
dated 1514. On the local figures,
extending to about 1550, attached to
the ornamental girdle is generally
Sotterley.

found a string of beads and a large pouch or bag, as
at Assington, c. 1500, and at Little Waldingfield, Mary
Appleton, 1526.
Occasionally, as at Ellough (see illus-
tration), the gown is open down the
front, trimmed and edged with fur.
Good heraldic mantles appear at Den-
stone, Margaret Everard, 1524 ; and
Stoke by Nay land. Lady Katherine
Howard, engraved c. 1535. The pedi-
mental head-dress is now succeeded by
the flat-topped Paris head, or Mary
Queen of Scots cap, accompanied by an
overgown, generally open in front to
display the embroidered petticoat, with
sleeves padded at the shoulders and
slashed on the arms, sometimes having
long appendages, or false sleeves, sus-
pended from the shoulders, correspond-
ing to those worn by civilians at the
same period. Examples are at Haw-
stead, in the wives of Sir William Drury,
1557 ; at Sotterley, Thomasin Playters,
1578; and a very curious example of this form of
costume at Stratford St. Mary, Elizabeth Crane, 1558
(see illustration).
Examples of the costume worn during the reigns of
Elizabeth and James I. may be seen at Easton,
Radclyff Wingfield, 1601, showing the large ruff", the
acutely pointed bodice, and the skirts extended by an
enormous farthingale, the predecessor of the nineteenth
century crinoline ; this is also shown in the figure of
Joan Brooke, at Yoxford, 1618. This fashion continued
till it was overlapped and succeeded by high-peaked and
Little
Waldingfield.

XXVlll INTRODUCTION.
broad-brimmed hats, of which examples appear at
Aldeburgh, Mary Bence, 1606; Hadleigh, Elizabeth
Glanfield, 1637 ; and many other places. The calash or
hood, which not only covered the head and shoulders,
but fell down . behind the back nearly to the ground,
is represented in the figure of Anne Butts, at Redgrave,
1609 {see illustration), and at Mendham, Cecily Freston,
1615. An extraordinary variation of this latter style
occurs in the curious and local figure at Ellough of
Margaret Chewt, 1607 {see illustration).
Children. — Of single figures there are six examples.
At Brundish a youth is represented, c. 1570, in ordinary
civil dress ; at Woodbridge a small figure of John
Shorlond, 1601, aged seven, is in a doublet and petticoat ;
at Walton William Simond, 1612, aged eleven, is a very
much- worn plate of a small kneeling figure in a cloak ;
at Boxford David Birde, 1606, aged twenty-two weeks,
is an infant in a cot (see illustration) ; and a ** chrysom ''
occurs at Lavenham in Clop ton D'Ewes, c. 1630, aged ten
days. The last of the series is the shrouded figure at Stow-
market of Anne Tyrell, 1638, aged eight-and-a-half years.
Shrouded Figures and Skeletons. — In addition to
the Lavenham and Stowmarket children, shrouded
figures occur again at Lavenham, where Thomas Spryng*
his wife and family, are all represented as rising from
a tomb in their grave clothes : this is dated 1486 ; at
Yoxford, 1485, where Thomasin Tendryng and five out
of seven of her children are shrouded ; and a little
figure kneeling behind his father. Sir Clement Heigham,
at Barrow, 1570. Two headless skeletons, c. 1500, are
to be found on the floor of the south aisle at Lowestoft,
and on the floor of the nave at Uflbrd is a quadrangular
plate whereon is represented, as a skeleton, Richard
Ballett, goldsmith, of London, 1598.
INTRODirCTION. XXIX
Canopies. — Triple canopies occur at Acton, 1435, and
Melton (much damaged), c. 1430; double canopies at
Burgate, 1409, Nayland, three examples, 1480 to 1500,
Stoke by Nayland, c 1425, and Wenham, 1514; single
canopies ^ at Campsea Ash, 1504, Long Melford, two
examples, c. 1480, and Playford, c. 1400.
Bracket — A single example remains at Ipswich, St.
Mary Tower, c. 1520, said to be for Thomas Drayle,
merchant.
Inscriptions. — These, unaccompanied by any sort of
figure, usually of small size and local workmanship, are
fairly numerous. Good examples of local work may be
found at Thelnetham, North Cove, Grundisburgh,
Withersfield, and Lowestoft. At Thrandeston, 1537,
and at Boxstead, 1546, occur two inscriptions evidently
from the same workshop, in that the lettering and
ornamentation of the capitals is exactly alike. At
Ampton is a small fillet bearing simply " Hie jacet
Edmundus Coket," whilst one at Chelmondiston has the
name only, " Thomas Bramstone."
Palimpsests. — Six of these have been noticed; at
Ampton, Bury St. Edmund's, St. Mary, Cookley,
Denham, Hadleigh, and Halesworth. Of these, three
are portions of Flemish brasses.
Miscellaneous. — Of religious devices there is a muti-
lated crucifix at Kenton, 1524; a representation of the
Holy Trinity at Orford, 1520 ; and a shield with a
tau cross and scroll at Bury St. Edmund's, St. Mary,
c. 1530. The Lancastrian collar of SS. occurs at
Barsham, c. 1415, and the Yorkist of Suns and Roses
at Bury St. Edmund's, St. Mary, c. 1480; the latter is
possibly on the figure at Holbrook of the same date.
Merchants' marks occur at Aldeburgh, 1610 ; Ampton.
c. 1480; Ipswich, St. Mary Quay, 1525 and 1590;
XXX INTRODUCTION.
St. Mary Tower, 1506 and c. 1520; St. Nicholas, 1604;
Lavenham, 1486 ; Lowestoft, 1450 ; and Orford, c. 1510.
The arms of the City of London are represented at
Boxford, 1610, and Great Saxham, 1632; the town of
Ipswich at Ipswich St. Clement's, 1583, St. Mary Quay,
1525, and St. Mary Tower, c. 1520; the Mercers'
Company at Boxford, 1610, and Ipswich, St. Mary Tower,
impaled with the Merchant's mark of Thomas Baldry,
1506 ; the Merchant Adventurers' at Boxford, 1610, and
Ipswich, St. Mary Quay, 1525 ; the Stationers' at Little
Bradley, 1584 ; the Saltfishmongers' at Lowestoft,
c. 1450; the Clothworkers' at Great Saxham, 1632; the
Goldsmiths' at Ufford, 1598 ; the East India Company
at Boxford, 1610, and Great Saxham, 1632, where are
also the shields of the Russia and Turkey merchants.
The building of an aisle is recorded on the little inscrip-
tion at Withersfield, c. 1480, and a bequest of milch kine
for the use of the parish, at South Elmham, St. James,
1601. The brass of the civilian at Wilby, c. 1530, is
accompanied by a small separate plate bearing thereon
a running sheep. An unusual feature is portrayed at
Hawstead, where the figures of Sir William Drury,
1557, and his first wife are represented with closed eyes,
the second wife, who survived him, has the eyes open.
The quadrangular plate, outside the church at Ringsfield,
to the memory of Nicholas Garneys, the builder of
Redesham Hall, who having died in 1599, is represented
with his wife in heraldic dresses, is copied from one at
Kenton of an earlier date to John Garneys and wife,
1524, an heraldic achievement taking the place of the
crucifix. Some of the brasses at Long Mel ford were
probably laid down about 1480, to the memory of his
ancestors, by Francis Clopton, the great benefactor to
the church in that place. At Sotterley two of the
INTRODUCTION. XXXI
Playters' brasses appear to have been renewed about the
year 1630 ; a new head was added to the mutilated
figure of the little priest at Lidgate in 1901 ; the frag-
ments of the Browne brass at Halesworth were recovered
from the depths of the river Waveney, in 1825 ; and an
American gentleman, a descendant of the Winthrops,
has, in recent years, restored to the church of Groton,
the interesting inscription to Adam Winthrop, lord of
the manor and patron of the church in 1562.
