Sir Hugh is wearing contemporary armour, complete with details of buckles and straps and his feet rest on a long tailed lion. Lady Margarets feet rest on her hounds, which wear jewelled collars. Margaret Freville, Sir Hughs second wife, remarried and went to Middleton, Warwickshire, and is buried there (according to recent c2000 research). His first wife, Isabel Foljambe, died in 1417 and has an incised slab in the Willoughby chapel. On it and in it Assuming that Sir Hugh commissioned the tomb himself, the lady on it would represent Isabel if commissioned close to 1417, but Lady Margaret if commissioned closer to 1448. Lady Isabels remains would have been reinterred here in c1420. (Photo Apr 2015).
