Description

St Margaret's Church, Barking, Essex, mural monument to Charles Montagu (1564-1625), MP, a younger brother of Henry Montagu, 1st Earl of Manchester and elder brother of James Montagu, Bishop of bath and Wells, and Bishop of Winchester. Text from [1] (see zoomable image):

With a carved alabaster scene, most detailed. Sir Charles rests in his tent, leaning on his elbow, wearing plate armour over pantaloons, his helm and gauntlets beside him, his painted arms above. A pair of guards stand on either side of the entrance, each holding a long musket, and wearing a flamboyant hat; behind on the left is a horse and page-boy. In the background, carved in low relief, are the pointed roofs of many more tents, each with its flag flying from the top. The piece is within a streaky brown alabaster frame, with upper entablature and curved pediment, broken at the top to include a cartouche with painted arms, and a tiny winged cherub head carved at the top. A heavy shelf at the base, and the inscription, within a nice scrolly surround, with small flower at the base and cutouts at the sides.
He married Mary Whitmore, a daughter of William Whitmore (d.1593), Citizen of the City of London and Haberdasher. Arms of Montagu above inside tent, on an oval escutcheon couchée: Argent, three fusils in fess gules a bordure sable, with difference of 4th son. Arms atop monument: Montagu quartering Monthermer all impaling Vert fretty or (Whitmore) (Burke, Sir Bernard, The General Armory, London, 1884, p.1105)
