This is an early 15th century alabaster tomb of a knight and his wife, in the church of St Mary Lutterworth. Who the people are that the tomb is dedicated to has been lost.
The figure of the knight is unusual as he wears a long robe over his armour. An angel is by the side of a pillow by his head and a dog lies at his feet.
On the side of the tomb are three angels holding shields.
