"Sir Thomas Long, Knight, lies buried by the North Wall of the Chancel, under a rich gothique altar monument without inscription; his heaume and crest do yet hang up over it". "Inheriting the Earth: the Long Family's 500 year reign in Wiltshire", by Cheryl Nichol, p 15

No idea where Drayton-Cerne came from other than a corruption of Draycot. Obviously bad LNAB.
