16th century chapel screen of the Pole family in St Andrew's church, Colyton.
Originally erected in the south transept by Thomas Brerewood as a memorial to himself. He was vicar of Colyton 1522-44. Brerewood also built the vicarage, which is one of the oldest in England still used for its original purpose.
The screen has a shield with the initials 'T.B.' with a briar bush - a rebus on the name Brerewood.
