From dating evidence of the strapwork decoration (fashionable from the reign of Queen Elizabeth I to the early reign of King James I) this would appear to be Sir Thomas Reynell (1545-1621), lord of the manor of East Ogwell, eldest son and heir of Richard Reynell (d.1585) of East Ogwell, Sheriff of Devon in 1585, by his wife Agnes Southcott, a daughter of John Southcott of Indeho in the parish of Bovey Tracey, Devon. Sir Thomas Reynell was the eldest brother of Sir Carew Reynell (1563-1624), MP, and of Sir Richard Reynell (d.1633) the builder of w:Forde House, once the manor house of the parish of Wolborough, now absorbed into a suburb of Newton Abbot.
