Review in Sussex Notes and Queries, August 1931:This is a very handy little book containing a complete list of Sussex brasses and monumental effigies down to 1650. It contains a very large amount of very useful information in a short form about the persons commemorated. There are diagrams of armour of different dates and of a heraldic shield which should prove most instructive to the wanderer among the churches of Sussex. There is one appendix dealing with civilian costume and priestly vestments and another giving the arms of the families mentioned in the text. Lists of the dates of the various monuments and of their distribution about the county add to the value and completeness of the volume, which is of pocket size.
It may seem thankless to call attention to slips, but there is a curious one on p.7 regarding Elizabeth Wakehurst. She and her sister Margaret were co-heiresses of their grandfather, Richard Wakehurst, and by their marriages to the brothers Richard and Nicholas Culpeper carried the Wakehurst estates into the latter family. The statement that Elizabeth's " father-in-law was the last male heir of the family" is therefore incorrect. Another error on the next page is due in the first place to the pedigree in S.A.C. xlviii which gives the date of Margaret Culpeper's death as 1509. The brass in Ardingly Church gives the date quite clearly as 1504.
We hope that many will avail themselves of this little book. It must have entailed an enormous amount of labour which will be appreciated by those who enjoy the fruit of it.
