Two coats of arms from an ancient monument once in an alcove in the south aisle of All Hallows' church, Seaton.
"Wright in 1684 mentions an ancient monument without any epitaph in an arch in the south wall of the body of the church on which were 'two coats of arms cut in the stone uncoloured.' Of this monument only the two shields remain, built into the wall of the south aisle near the doorway.
The first shield is, Quarterly (1 and 4) two lioncells passant, (2) bendy of ten pieces, (3) two bars surmounted by a bend; the second is a lion passant crowned. The quarterly shield has helm, crest and mantling."
