| Description |
The Goldwells resided in the Manor of Goldwell, a mile west of the church, from the early 13th century. Sir John Goldwell was a commander in the reign of King John, until the estate was sold in the reign of King James I. Thomas Goldwell purchased Godinton in 1406 which passed at the end of the 15th century to his Grand-daughter Joan, married to Thomas Toke. The brasses depict William and his wife Avice, their son was a rector of Great Chart from 1458 to 1472 when he became Bishop of Norwich. He was not often resident in the parish, but in 1477 he restored the church which was damaged by fire some years earlier. He is buried in Norwich Cathedral and is commemorated in the east window of the south Chapel of the church. The brass is on top of an altar tomb which was moved to its present position in the 19th century restoration. Brass escutcheons of Thomas Goldwell, William Goldwell, and John toke were added to the sides. Various parts of the brass are missing including the children. William and Avice both died in the year 1485. The prayer scrolls ask God for Mercy in slightly different Latin prayers, for example "Fili Redemptor Mundi, Deus, Miserere Nobis". |
