There are many details of interest to be found in the pre-Reformation wills of parishioners, which are preserved in the "Consistory Court." In them we find bequests to the Light of the Holy Cross, the Light of the Blessed Mary, the Light of St. Martin, the Light of St. Christopher, the Light of St. Erasmus, for daily masses before the image of St. Nicholas, to the High Altar, for the purchase of a new Cross, for various ornaments, for paving,--together with tenements, real estate, legacies for the benefit of the poor, and sundry curious personal gifts which wonderfully illustrate the habits and customs of the period. And from an inventory of Parish Church goods in Kent, made in 1552, we find the following entry relating to St. Martin's under the head of "19th July vi., Edward vi.":-- Bartylemewe Barham gent. and Stevyn Goodhewe, churchwardens. _Ffirst_, one chalys with the paten of sylver. _Item_, one vestment of blewe velvett with a cope to the same. _Item_, one vestment of whyte braunchyd damaske with a cope to the same. _Item_, one other olde vestment with a cope to the same. _Item_, two table clothes. _Item_, one long towell, one short towell. _Item_, ij corporas with their clothes. _Item_, one velvet cushon and one saten cushon. _Item_, ij chysts, iiij surplysys. _Item_, iij bells and one waggerell bell in the steple.
