Culture, General Things, Church Monuments Books, Monumental Effigies of Great Britain, Effiy at Staindrop, Durham

Effiy at Staindrop, Durham is in Monumental Effigies of Great Britain.

THIS figure is unappropriated; but belongs, there can be little doubt, to one of the family of Nevill of Raby. It wears a circlet, in form resembling a ducal coronet. A wimple covering the chin. Hair braided. A long mantle attached to the shoulders, by a lace apparently passed through two metallic loops, which are adorned with lions' heads.
