The skeleton was at first assumed to be male, perhaps that of a knight called Sir William de Moton who was known to have been buried there, but later examination showed it to be of a woman—perhaps a high-ranking benefactress.
S-a presupus la început că scheletul este de bărbat, probabil al unui cavaler denumit Sir William de Moton despre care se știa că a fost înmormântat acolo, dar o analiză ulterioară a arătat ca este al unei femei—poate dintr-o familie nobilă de ctitori.
