NOTES: In 1845 Brakspear exhibited a drawing at the Royal Academy of Arts, London (no. 1214) which the 'Builder' called "perhaps the finest drawing in the collection [of drawings in the Architecture Room]". The drawing was entitled 'The Parker Monument in Paignton Church, Torbay, Devon'. The drawing seen here appears to be the Kirkham Chantry (late 15th century) in St John's Church, Paignton. There is no Parker Monument in that church, although there is a funerary hatchment to a member of the Parker family hanging in the church.
