Summary

Description
English: Near the south wall of the transept are two effigies of stone, each about 6ft long, representing a Crusader and his lady. These according to some county historians, were moved here when the church was built, from a little parish chapel belonging to the Carminow family. C.S. Gilbert thought it "more probable that they were brought from the church of the Grey Friars at Bodmin, where figures of the kind are known to have laid in commemoration of the Carminow family." The Crusader in St. Mawgan Church, and represented by the engraving, is certainly a Carminow, for he bears their arms, and may be the effigy of that "Robert de Carmynow" menitioned by Hals. The transept is called "the Carminow aisle."
