      • Here resteth in Peace Sir Olliphe Leigh of Addington Knight who married Jane Daughter of Sr. Thomas Browne of •worth Knight by whom he had Francis his onely Sonne and Heire He died the Mth day of Marche MDCCXII. And in memory of John Leigh his Father anid Nicholas his Father caused this Monument to be erected."

        Above the lady lies the effigies of Sir Olliphe, in complete armour, leaning on his elbow ; his left hand, helmet and gauntlets supporting his head, with his right hand on his sword ; over which are erected two arches ; in that of the right hand are the figures of Nicholas Leigh, Esq., and his lady, kneeling, with their faces towards each other ; under them, on a black table, is the following inscription : -

        "Nicholas Leigh of Addington Esquier married Anne Sister to Sr Nicholas Carew of Beddington Knight by whem he had Issue
        John Leigh. Malin. Elizabeth. Mary. Anne."

        In the other arch are likewise the portraitures of John Leigh and his lady, in such action as the former ; the gentleman in armour, and lady in their ancient dresses. Under them is this inscription : -

        "John Leigh of Addington Esquier Sonne of Nicholas Leieh of Addington Maried Joane Daughter and Heire of John Olliph
        Esquier by whom he had Issue Sr Ollipb. Leigh Knight .J"lm Charles Anne Joane Elizabeth and Katherin He ended this
        Lyfe the 31th of March MDLXXVI."

        Above are four shields with the arms of Leigh, Carew, and Olliph. 9

        The whole was surmounted originally with a cornice and angels blowing trumpets ; but these were gone in Aubrey's time. At the last restoration of the church in 1875 there was a wish expressed to move this monument, but, owing to the objection of the Archbishop and of one of the principal subscribers, the design was happily abandoned.

        Sir Olliph Leigh's widow, Jane, survived him, and was buried at Addington on 28th June, 1631.
