Hidden behind the organ in the Trinity chapel of St.Mary & St.Peter's church - a richly ornamented canopied niche with lifesize alabaster effigies of an undated and unknown man and woman. They are thought to be either John Bluett, Lord of the Manor in the 15th century and his wife or more likely Sir Richard Rickhill and wife. The style dates the tomb to the early 15th century.
