[A detailed description follows.] On the south side of the tomb are three small male figures, one bearded, each holding a shield, and in the middle the arms of Brockett within a garter. On the west side are two small effigies of Sir John Brockett dressed in exactly similar manner to the recumbent figure above. Each figure holds a shield. On the north side are three small female figures holding shields, and inthe middle a lozenge containing the arms of Benstede in a garter. "The 3 small figures on each side symmetrically represented their large family. "William Henry Brockett, compiler of the 1860 Gateshead pedigree, studied the tomb—and heraldry—carefully: "At the West End of this monument are three shields, upon which are these arms :- On the first shield, under the female figure, quarterly, 1st and 4th, or a cross patonce, sable, Brocket; 2nd and 3rd,gules, three bars gemelles, or, Bensted; impaling, quarterly, first, ermine, on a chief indented, azure, three ducal coronets, or, Lytton; 2 and 3 argent, three boars' heads, erased and erect, sable,tusked, or, Booth. 4th, or, on a cross, gules, five pomegranates, or.
