The small north chapel contains several intriguing medieval tombs, three with sizable effigies. Despite their apparent age, it seems likely that several of the effigies are fakes, produced during the Tudor period as an attempt by a local lord by the name of Wellesbourne to establish a fanciful descent from the family of Simon de Montfort.
