There has been a chapel in Dittisham since at least 1050 AD. In 1328 the Bishop of Exeter demanded an enquiry into how it had been neglected and allowed to fall into ruin. Sir Richard de Gormersale, the Rector, was charged with rebuilding and enhancing the church. It was reopened and dedicated to St. George by Bishop Grandisson on October 4 1333. This Note relates to the remains of a missing brass in the church and attempts to compare what remains with the brass of John Corp in the neighbouring church at Stoke Fleming.
