Wyndham Memorial - St Andrew's Church Trent Not only is the memorial to Sir Francis Wyndham who died in 1715 but also to his family and in particular his third son Colonel Francis Wyndham. The Colonel is famous for hiding Charles II in his flight from the Battle of Worcester in his wife's chambers at the manor house. He then tried to secure a boat at Charmouth for the King's escape to France. In recognition of his good deeds Charles knighted him. He also became governor of Dunster Castle in the Civil War and married Anne Gerard, daughter of Thomas Gerard of Trent.
