No. 8 is a coffin placed on that of Sir Matthew Andrews, and has the eshte: 
inscription :— 
“Thomas Hamond 
Gent 
Dyed

Aged 14 years.” 
The Still family lived at Dean’s Orchard, and are still the owners 
on a lease under the Keclesiastical Commissioners, for the life of 
Mr. George Still Law. 
Sir Matthew Andrews, Knt., was owner of Woodlands, where he 
lived. 
Nothing is known of Thomas Hamond, probably he was one of 
the Andrews family, as they held Woodlands till 1753. 
The coffins were not disturbed, and the vault is now over 6ft. in 
height from floor to centre of arch roof. There are steps from the 
chapel floor to the bottom of the vault on the north side. Some 
parts of an ancient doorway were found used in the masonry of the 
vault, which it is conjectured may have formed part of the ancient 
Castle, and been removed from Castle Hill, when the vault was 
built. 
1This Sarah Still was daughter of Dr. Thomas Tatum, of Mere, and wife of
