Signage next to this monument:

“Robert Sherburne, Bishop of Chichester 1508-1536

“Though in many ways a careerist ecclesiastic of the early Tudor period - he served as Secretary, Councillor and Ambassador to King Henry VII and climbed rapidly the ladder of church promotion and amassed a considerable fortune - he was also, particularly as a bishop, a generous benefactor, a patron of the arts and friend of learning, and a committed reformer.”
