About the memorial: An octagonal revestry [sic] entered from the east end of the north aisle was constructed in 1946 in memory of Basil John Pearson, brother of Henry Hetley Pearson (see separate entry), but demolished for structural reasons before extension works of 1970. It most likely contained a memorial tablet which does not survive.
