<p style='text-align: justify;'><p>Labelled ‘Escutcheon of Thos: [<i>deleted and corrected underneath in a different hand to </i>James] Martin of Stow cum Quy Hall.’ James Martin was the banker brother of Thomas Martin and they jointly acquired the Quy estate from Sir Francis Whichcote (<b>272</b>) when they foreclosed on his mortgage. On the N wall is a memorial to James Martin, d.1744, a white marble tablet with carved apron. The hatchment was probably removed during repairs by the Francis family.</p><p>Bingley and Cockerill 2006; VCH 2002</p></p>
