Nathaniel Fiennes. On the northwest wall of the nave of the Church of Newton Toney, Wilts, is the monument erected to the memory of Nathaniel Fiennes and his two daughters; being a large oblong slab of black marble, on which, beneath the arms, is carved the inscription given below. Two flat stones on the floor of the chancel also bear arms and inscriptions, now much obliterated, but evidently in memory of unmarried daughters of Nathaniel Fiennes, in all probability the same that are mentioned on his own monument:---
