with the Poticarys, which accounts for his being born and buried 

 at Stockton. The Greenhills of Steeple Ashton bore the same 

 arms, and may have been connected with a family of that name, 

 who owned the manor of Hide in Abbots' Langley, in the County 

 of Herts. Henry Greenhill, of Greenhill in the parish of Harrow 

 on the Hill, Middlesex, purchased the manor of Hide, and died 

 seized of it in 1655 ; and it descended to his posterity. (Chauncey's 

 Herts, Vol. 2, p. 337). 



Over the south door are two small marble slabs to the memory 

 of two daughters of Mr. William Wansboro Pinchard, who both 

 died unmarried. 



In an arched recess under the window at the west end of the 

 south wall is the recumbent effigy of the foundress of this aisle, 

 (as is supposed,) of which an account has already been given. On 

 the west side of the wall which separates the nave and chancel, is 

 a very handsome monument, executed in Caen stone, by Mr. Osmond 

 of Salisbury, and erected a few years since, by Harry Biggs, Esq., 

 to the deceased members of his family. It is in the decorated 

 style of Gothic, richly ornamented. In the gable are the family 

 arms, and the slab is thus inscribed : — 



"Sacred to the memory of Henry Biggs, Esq., who died March 31st, 1800, 

 aged 77 years. 



Also of Diana his wife, who died June 30th, 1818, aged 89 years. 



Also of Margaretta Anne, eldest daughter of Harry Biggs, Esq., only son of 

 Henry and Diana Biggs, born Oct. 11th, 1819. 



Also of Mary Anne, wife of Henry Godolphin Biggs, Esq., and second 

 daughter of William Wyndham, Esq., of Dinton, born Jan. 23rd, 1798; died 

 Feb. 12th, 1838. 



Also of Arthur William Biggs, Major of 7th Hussars, youngest son of 

 Harry Biggs, Esq., born Aug. 9th, 1804; died Nov. 2nd, 1840." 



The dark coloured stone under the tower arch (which was removed 

 into the church-yard in 1849, when the tower arch was restored), is 

 an ancient coffin lid of Purbeck marble, the upper side turned down. 

 It was examined in 1846. The upper end has been broken off 

 through the head of the cross, which appeared to have been formed 

 of circles. The edge of the stone is widely chamfered between two 

 beads. It is unfortunately too much injured to be restored.
