Summary

Denny Monument Marvellous late-Elizabethan monument to Sir Edward Denny and his wife Lady Margaret with 'weepers' depicting their 7 sons and 3 daughters. The symbolism shows that the boys with swords were over 21 when their father died, the girls with ruffs were married and the two children with linked arms were twins. The monument was sculpted in 1600 by Bartholomew Ayde and Isaac James of St.Martin-in-the-Fields. Lady Margaret survived her husband by 48 years and is buried at Bishop's Stortford. In the spandrels, figures of Fame and Time watch over the Denny family.
