English: Monumental brass in Sandford Church, Devon, of Mary Carew (1550-1604), wife of Walter II Dowrish, of Dowrish in the parish of Sandford and daughter of Dr. George Carew, Dean of Windsor, 3rd son of Sir Edmund Carew, Baron Carew, of Mohuns Ottery in the parish of Luppitt, Devon. This is the original brass, originally lying on the floor of the church which caused it to become worn, especially on the right side. It was restored in the 19th century by descendants of the Dowrish family and framed in a new brass frame decorated with heraldry of the Dowrich family (not shown here). The upper part of this brass is in three sections, comprising an arcade of three arches; under the central arch is a recumbent effigy of the deceased lying on an altar-tomb, with above her an escutcheon showing Dowrish (Argent, a bend cotised sable a bordure engrailed of the last) impaling Carew (Or, three lions passant sable); under the two flanking arches are kneeling effigies of one son and three daughters: under the left arch is shown her only son and heir Thomas VIII Dowrish (1568-1628), with above him the arms of Dowrish impaling Stucley (Azure, three pears pendant or), and kneeling behind him his eldest surviving sister Dorothy Dowrish, the wife of Thomas II Peyton, Customer of Plymouth, the second son of Thomas I Peyton of St Edmundsbury in Suffolk (a junior member of the ancient Peyton family of Peyton Hall, Boxford, Suffolk, descended from Thomas de Peyton (1418-1484), twice Sheriff of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire (1443 & 1453)who rebuilt the church of St Andrew's in Isleham,[31] in the chancel of which survives his monumental brass[32])[33] by his wife Lady Cecilia Bourchier, a daughter of John Bourchier, 2nd Earl of Bath (1499-1560/61) of Tawstock in Devon.
