This humble little church quite unexpectedly accommodates two fine monuments, this one being the work of the renowned sculptor Sir Richard Westmacott. It commemorates Katherine Long, who died a spinster at the age of 97 in 1814, the youngest daughter of Thomas Long of South Wraxall. She is buried in the Long family vault in the church. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2700217
