Over his shoulder passes a guige to carry the shield, which used to bear the arms of the Bingham family being Or on a fess gules three water bougets argent. The surcoat has a narrow girdle and is over the hauberk which is split for riding. The knee caps are of plain cuirbouilli and the feet rest on a lion and he wears prick spurs. The hands held in prayer appear to have had a fixture attached to them which may have perhaps once been a heart. Richard was knighted by Edward I and serverd in 2 parliaments.
