_Wooden Tombs and Effigies_ (Vol. vii., pp. 528. 607., &c.).--At
Sparsholt, Berks, in the south transept are two female effigies of wood,
under sepulchral arches, richly carved in stone: one of them is engraved
in Hollis's _Monuments_. At Burghfield and Barkham, in the same county,
are also wooden effigies of the fourteenth century.
At Hildersham Church, Cambridgeshire, within the altar rails, on the
north side, is a wooden monument of a knight and his lady: the knight
cross-legged, and drawing his sword. They are said to be the effigies of
Sir Thomas Busteler and lady, temp. Edward II.
