Summary edit

Description
English: The Tomb of Edmund West Marsworth is a village in Buckinghamshire, about two miles north of Tring and six miles east of Aylesbury. The village, whose name is Anglo Saxon in origin - Mæssanwyrth meaning 'Mæssa's enclosure' - grew significantly at the end of the 18th Century with the construction of the Grand Junction (now Grand Union) Canal, which passes through it. The South Chapel of Marsworth parish church, 'All Saints', contains several memorials to the West family, the most important being this table tomb in memory of Edmund West (d. 1681). It is one of the few known works of Epiphanius Evesham, whose signature appears on the right hand bottom corner of the panel at the North end.
