The stone sculpture(Reredos)of the Last Supper was donated by the children of The 6th Earl Fitzwilliam in commemoration of the Earl and Countess's Golden Wedding in 1883.
Stone work is rather dark, and in a conversation the vicar said that some minor damage had been done by a woman in the past; to some of the noses and other carvings. It seems that this woman may have been mentally disturbed.

The church was commissioned by The 6th Earl in 1873 and consecrated in 1877.
Approximate Age of Artefact: 1883
