Memorial Inscription
The third in point of date is the western on the north side to 'John Dyggeby of Colleshull', (fn. 134) died 15 November 1558, and Anne his wife, daughter of Sir George Throgmorton, who died 21 December in the same year. Their recumbent effigies are of painted alabaster. The man's head, with long hair, moustache, and forked beard, rests on his mantled helm which bears the Digby crest, an ostrich painted black, now headless. He wears full armour, with three chains about his neck and resting on his cuirass, pleated wristlets, a girdle of twisted cord, a guige with a sword on his left, &c. His feet rest on a lion. The woman has a close cap, beaded and jewelled, close collar with a frilled edge and bound by a chain necklet, close bodice and tight sleeves with crimped cuffs, and a mantle tied in front from neck to waist with cord tags but open below to show the skirt, and having long false sleeves with puffed shoulders, cheveron ornament, and slashes held together by knotted tags. A tiny dog bites the end of the mantle. The base has square pilasters at the angles and intermediate twisted shafts. At the east end are the small standing figures of four sons, one in armour, two in boys' gowns, and the fourth a swaddled baby. At the west end is a shield with the arms of Digby (five quarterings) impaling Throgmorton (seven quarterings), set in a circlet. On the south side are three shields charged 1 Digby, 3 Throgmorton, and 2 the two impaled in the remains of a similar circlet. The inscription is in English.
