Relhan, Richard, 1782-1844
Relhan Collection
<p style='text-align: justify;'><p>Labelled ‘Coat Armour of Sir John Huddleston of Sawston 1557’. The crest of a bleeding scalp held up by arms emerging from behind a helmet, appears above Huddleston’s monument in Relhan’s drawing (<b>284</b>). Kerrich says that the helmet had been removed many years previously, which suggests this drawing and (<b>284) </b>are early works by Relhan. A helmet (but no crest), is today in place. </p><p>Kerrich 1815; Teversham 1943</p></p>
