William de la Corner (d1291) was bishop of Salsibury from 1289 until his death whilst on his second mission abroad as an ambassador for Edward I. This tomb is just 1.1 metres in length and is sometimes described as the tomb of a boy bishop. However, small tombs like this were often built when just the heart of the deceased was buried, in this case it was the bones that were returned to Salisbury.
This thirteenth century effigy of a Knight dressed in chain mail and surcoat, is thought to be John de Verdun (d1274) a close supporter of King Henry III. The effigy is sculpted from Barnack Rag stone, and can be found in the Saxon church of All Saints Brixworth, Northamptonshire.
The Tomb of Mabilia de Murdak (also spelled Mabilla or Mabila) is a small 14th-century medieval monument. The tomb is part of a collection of stone memorials in the north chapel (or Gayton Chapel), which includes effigies of local nobility tied to dramatic family events, such as murder and pilgrimage.
