 76 THE CHURCHES OF CORNWALL retained within its panels. Arcades have each 4 lofty arches ; beneath eastern arch, on N. side, is a fine alabaster effigy of Sir Robert Willoughby, 1502; he was created Lord Willoughby de Broke in 1492, and by marriage with Blanche, heiress of Sir John Champernowal, acquired manor of Callington. The details of effigy and tomb are of much interest. Over his armour the knight wears mantle of Order of the Garter, together with collar and badge. At soles of feet are two diminutive figures of friars with their beads ; this is not a " unique " arrangement as generally stated, it occurs on one of the Fitzherbert effigies at Norbury, Derbyshire. Shields in front of table-tomb bear the arms of Willoughby de Broke, Latimer, Cheyney, and Stafford. S. door is origi- nal and has plain hinges and a good closing-ring, about which the usual nonsense as to a "sanctuary ring" is current. To E. of entrance are the re- mains of niche for stoup. Within the porch is the massive mensa of an altar, measuring 5 ft. y in. by 2 ft. 4 in., and about 8 in. thick ; note the aperture in the surface, 6 in. by 2 in., wherein the relics were sealed at time of altar's consecration. Tower was gutted by fire on 2nd July, 1895. In churchyard is a good cross, with sculptured head, 8 ft. 3 in. high, evidently coeval with re- building of church, and of same style as that at St. Mawgan-in-Pyder. (Registers, 1558.) Calstock {St. Andrew). — Chancel, nave of 4 bays, aisles, S. porch, and W. tower. Rebuilt
