Inscription on the second stone. Hie jacet Elizabetha Jilia Tho* Talbot Milit. de Bashall Septemb. Anno Domiiii MCCCCLI Cujus anim& propitietur Deus. Amen. 15 Throsby describes the lands of Rampton as being then (1790) the property of A. H. Eyre, Esq., who resided at the neighbouring mansion of Grove Hall, and was the descendant and heir, by female succession, of John and Saunchia Babington. The old manor-house of Rampton was pulled down by this gentleman's grandfather about the year 1720. At p...resent (1854) the lord of the manor and owner of the lands is the Rev. Charles W. Eyre, and the incumbent of the parish is the Rev. T. G. Wintour. The latter gentleman has done me the favour to state in a letter, dated August 30. 1854, that the two Stanhope monuments at Rampton continue in good preservation. He adds : " They were rightly described " by Throsby, as lying in the south aisle, partly concealed by " a pew; but the present possessor of this property, the Rev. C. " W. Eyre, thinking it a pity they should occupy such an " obscure position, had them carefully removed about two years " ago, to the floor of the chancel, where they now are.
