Memorial Notes:

The church contains a monument to Martin Bond (d. 1643), who was with the Trained Bands at Tilbury in 1588. The memorial features soldiers in uniforms from the 1640s. The church also contains a number of defaced brasses, but these were not reckless acts of vandalism: instead, as the parish accounts identify defacing the superstitious inscriptions was a sanctioned act of iconoclasm.
