What is recorded here

Located on the external face of the W wall of the friary church (GA017-055002-). Bradley and Dunne (1992, 69) noted that the principal feature of the church was its ‘perpendicular west doorway with the Bermingham coat of arms in a rectangular panel to one side above. The inscription on the panel (which is not entirely readable) names Gaulterius de Bremwycham (d. 1428) but it may be nothing more than a memorial since the door appears to be later in date than 1428 (Leask 1960, iii, 76)’. On inspection in April 2018 the recess for the memorial was clearly visible but no trace of the coat of arms or the inscription, which may have been inscribed on a tablet that was inserted into the recess, was evident.
