The east window was glazed by Burlison and Grylls in 1907 in memory of four members of the Hamond family. This one is Admiral Richard Horace Hamond (1843-1906) (sleeve insignia of a Rear Admiral and bicorn hat of an Admiral on floor; on the Retired List since before promotion in 1905) of West Acre (3rd son of Anthony Hamond (1805-1869) of West Acre), who died unmarried. From: http://www.dreadnoughtproject.org/tfs/index.php/Richard_Horace_Hamond: "Hamond was appointed Flag Lieutenant to Vice-Admiral George Elliot, Commander-in-Chief, Sheerness, on 30 June, 1870. On the hauling down of Elliot's flag Hamond was promoted to the rank of Commander, on 13 February, 1873.[1] Hamond was promoted to the rank of Captain on 31 December, 1881.[2] On 16 September, 1892, Hamond was appointed Private Secretary to the First Lord of the Admiralty, Earl Spencer.[3] W. Graham Greene, a civil servant at the Admiralty, later wrote of Hamond, "'Dick' Hamond was a thorough seaman, bearded, rolling in his gait, devoted to sport, shooting, fishing, & with the outlook of a plain Norfolk county gentleman."[4] Hamond succeeded Captain Archibald L. Douglas in command of H.M.S. Cambridge, gunnery school at Plymouth, on 3 July, 1894. He was promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral dated 9 November, 1896, vice Fane,[5] and superseded in Cambridge on 1 December.[6] Flag Rank: Hamond was advanced to the rank of Vice-Admiral on the Retired List on 25 January, 1902,[7] and was advanced to the rank of Admiral on the Retired List on 22 July, 1905". Admiral Richard Horace Hamond was succeeded by his brother Thomas Astley Horace Hamond (d.1917), lord of the manor of Swaffham. Another memorial window depicts Lewis Hamond, born on the 15th October 1860, and died at Pincher Creek, Canada, on 14th February 1900, aged 39, second son of Capt. Philip Hamond (d.1886), 4th son of Phillip Hamond (d.1824). Hatchment on the north wall for Philip Hamond (d.1824) of High House, West Acre, Norfolk. In 1803 he married Anne Packe, a daughter of Charles James Packe (1726 – 1816) of w:Prestwold Hall, Prestwold, Leicestershire, who rebuilt Prestwold Hall, and soon after created the park around it. Philip Hamond's eldest son and heir was Anthony Hamond (d.1869), High Sheriff of Norfolk in 1836. The Hamonds were descendants of Susan Walpole, youngest sister of Sir Robert Walpole of Houghton Hall, Norfolk, Prime Minister; (Source: Burke's Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Landed Gentry, 15th Edition, ed. Pirie-Gordon, H., London, 1937, pp.1036-7).
