More about this scene
This photograph shows some of the numerous monuments housed within the Lumley Chapel that once formed part of old Cheam Church. The carved alabaster tomb of the first Lady Lumley, who died in 1592, dominates this view of the chapel's south side. She was the daughter of Henry Fitzalan, the eighteenth Earl of Arundel, and is depicted on the panel above the tomb's marble top kneeling at prayer. The two front panels show her three children, with the family's coat of arms emblazoned on the damaged end panel. On the extreme left is the carved memorial to James Bovey and his wife. He was probably connected to Cheam School and died in 1695.
