Per the Yeo Society website, Philippa Grenville had these stained glass windows installed in Petrocstowe Church in 1450. The window was moved so some of the sections were reversed; in addition, there has been damage to some of the arms. But at the top of the left side, there is very clearly a coat with the Grenville and Bonville arms joined. At the top right are the arms of Grenville apparently joined with Gorges (per the Yeo Society website), but the arms seem to more closely resemble those of Calmady (azul, three pears or, with a chevron or).
