There are two large effigies. The male clad in civilian costume : namely, a long gown with sleeves reaching nearly to the ground, and hanging down from the shoulders as mere ornamental strips, with holes in the upper part for the arms. Underneath it a doublet and trunk-hose. The female figure shows some changes in costume since the date of the Towneshend figure. The hair is brushed back from the temples, and the Paris hood has the lappet thrown forward over the top of the head. The ornament in ...front of the skirts is scroll work instead of a diapered pattern. On the face of the tomb are figures of the sons in civilian dress, with short cloaks and long-waisted doublets ; and on the two ends the daughters.

The original iron rails are still round the tomb, with pennons at the corners, perforated with the initials of the deceased. Above is this inscription : " Heare lye the bodies of Ed- mund Walter, Esq.
