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.
