There is another tomb situated in the south transept (Figs. [1179] and [1180]). It is believed to be that of Sir Alexander Forrester, son of the last mentioned Sir John. The date of his death is not recorded, but he is known to have been alive in 1467. It contains his effigy only. There has been a finial on the tomb, which is now gone.
The amount of heraldic carving on the above tombs, on the gable of the south transept (Fig. [1181]), and on the western porch (Fig. [1182]) is considerable and is well preserved.[113]
The arms represented on the various shields throughout the whole series comprise, for the different members of the Forrester family above mentioned,

Argent, three hunting horns stringed sable.
These occur alone and conjoined with the arms of their wives, viz.:—
