English: Corbel supporting a roof timber, nave of Poltimore Church, Devon, showing arms of Pederton family. John VI Bampfield (14th century), lord of the manor of Poltimore, Devon, married Agnes Pederton, daughter and heiress of John Pederton of Hardington, Somerset, by his wife Cecilia Turney, daughter and heiress of John Turney. By his wife he had two sons, the eldest Sir William Bampfield of Poltimore, the youngest Peter Bampfield of Hardington, Somerset, whose ultimate male descendant was Warwick Bampfield (1623–1695), of Hardington, whose heir was Sir Coplestone Warwick Bampfylde, 3rd Baronet (c. 1689–1727) of Poltimore. John VI and his wife Agnes Pederton rebuilt the Parish Church of Poltimore, as is evidenced by an inscribed ledgerstone, said by Worthy (1896) to have been moved from the nave to the chancel, bearing the following Latin text: (Worthy, Charles, Devonshire Wills: A Collection of Annotated Testamentary Abstracts together with the Family History and Genealogy of Many of the Most Ancient Gentle Houses of the West of England, London, 1896[1])

"MCCCXC. Hic jacent Joh(ann)es Baunfeld et Agnes uxor eius, pat(er) et mat(er) Will(ielm)i Baunfeld, qui ha(n)c ecclesia(m) et maxima(m) campana(m) fieri fecer(u)nt" ("1390. Here lie John Bampfield and Agnes his wife, the father and mother of William Bampfield, who caused to come into being this church and the greatest bell").

Missing letters in the Latin inscription, omitted to save sculpting labour, are indicated by tildes placed over missing letters. The arms are Bampfield (later Baron Poltimore) impaling Pederton Argent, a bend gules between three lion's heads erased and ducally crowned sable (Summers, Peter & Titterton, John, (eds.), Hatchments in Britain, Vol.7: Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Isle of Wight and Somerset; Phillimore Press, Chichester, Sussex, 1988, p.29)
