Monumental brasses became popular during the Middle Ages and were commonly mounted on the walls and floors of cathedrals to commemorate the great and wealthy. Often depicting knights and bishops, these representations are a major source of information concerning arms, armour and dress in the Middle Ages.

Sally Badham’s passion for church monuments, especially brasses, developed from taking up brass-rubbing as a hobby while at school. She is a leading authority on monuments, having lectured widely and published several books and over eighty articles. She is a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London and an active member of the Monumental Brass Society and the Church Monuments Society. She has also established a website on brasses for the MBS.

Martin Stuchfield is co-author of the County Series established in 1992 to publish a comprehensively illustrated list of brasses, indents and lost brasses in the UK. He is a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London and a Vice-President of the Monumental Brass Society having served as Hon Secretary from 1994-2007 and is the Society’s Conservation Officer and is a consultant on monumental brasses to the Chelmsford, Norwich and St Edmundsbury & Ipswich Diocesan Advisory Committees.
