The cadaver tomb of John Barton

The church is noted for the founder's cadaver tomb. John Barton was a prosperous wool merchant who died in 1491. His wealth accumulated from sheep was acknowledged in stone and stained-glass in his now-gone home 'I thank God and ever shall, It is the shepe that hath payed for all' (sic) he founded St. Giles' church and built his tomb during his lifetime with his memento mori below. At his feet is his rebus - a barrel (tun) with a bar across it for 'Barton'.
