The Baynards Why are apparently incorrect arms used in a number of locations? This is unknown and no good explanation has so far been made. The porch appears to date from about 1470 139 and so the brass and the porch are almost contemporary. This is a true marriage porch, such as mentioned by Chaucer when he wrote of the Wife of Bath “Housbondes at chirchedore I have had fyve 140 ”. The marriage took place in the porch, after which the party entered the church for a nuptial mass Robert and Elizabeth’s correct arms were to be seen in the northern window of Neston church at one time, but They were removed and placed in the window of Neston House by William Eyre in 1675 and then removed by Sir William Hanham to his home in Dorset 141 The Latin inscription on the brass tells that Robert was "a good man and skilled in the Law, a very active soldier one of the best house keepers 142 , and a zealous promoter of peace" 143 (“in armies bellis multum strenuus, dapifer precipuus inter primos, pacis conservator diligentissimus”). 139 WFHS The monumental inscriptions of Lacock Parish.

The Baynards Of all their children only the names of four of their sons are known - their eldest, Philip, Roger, Henry and the second eldest, George (who is shown on the brass as a priest), and three of their five daughters, Elizabeth, Jane and Joan. Philip is shown on the brass as a larger figure to his siblings, as was normal at the time, to show his importance as the heir. The costume worn by George Fig. 13 Detail from Baynard brass, St Cyriacs Church (After Kite) ** is of interest because it is normal for clerics to be shown with university hood and cape, whereas George has a short scarf thrown over the shoulders and fastened by a button. Heines 144 notes only ten instances of the hood worn like this between 1500 and 1530 and this is the earliest example known. 145 144 Heines (1861) Manual of Brasses, fn 129 145 Kite, E (1899) Wilts Notes and Queries vol 3 43
