Some medieval brasses survive, as well as fine monuments to the Dukes of Grafton buried here.
Only two or three examples, and these of late date, are known in Scotland, among which are the memorials of Alexander Cockburn (1564) at Ormiston; of the regent Murray (1569) in the collegiate church of St Giles, Edinburgh; and of the Minto family (1605) in the south aisle of the nave of Glasgow Cathedral.
The church, dedicated to St Margaret, is an ancient structure, and contains a brass of the date 1585.

A monumental brass at Mildenhall shows a knight whose badge of a dog or wolf circled by a crown hangs from a collar with edges suggesting a pruned bough or the ragged staff.
An effigial memorial brass to Sir William Laken can be found at Bray Church in Berkshire, where he was laid to rest alongside his wife Sybilla, daughter and heiress of John Syfrewast, Lord of the Manor of Clewer.
He also assisted Lewis Weston Dillwyn in his ‘Contributions towards a History of Swansea,’ Swansea, 1840, joined the Rev. Thomas Bliss in writing ‘Some Account of Sir Hugh Johnys, Deputy Knight Marshal of England, temp. Henry VI and Edward IV, and of his Monumental Brass in St. Mary's Church, Swansea,’ Swansea, 1845, and helped Dr. Thomas Nicholas in the compilation of the ‘Annals of Counties and County Families of Wales,’ 1872, 1875.
