Some insight… from a quick google search and copy and paste from this link
“…these tombs are rather special, more than special they are Grade 2 listed.
The main tomb is known as the 13th century Venables Tomb, the figures are of a male and female with their hands clasped together in prayer. The male is thought to be part of the Venables family who are mentioned in the Domesday Book.”
