Henry Fayrey died in 1516; his funerary brasses, formerly in Dunstable church, are in the V&A Metalwork collection (museum numbers M.126-1922, M.127-1922, M.2667-1931, M.33-1932). It is presumed that he, or a member of his family, gave this pall to the Fraternity of St. John the Baptist, a religious and charitable group which was founded at Dunstable in 1442 and dissolved in 1547. The unidentified figures on the pall probably represent members of the fraternity. The register of the fraternity is at Luton Museum. The Fayrey Pall was on long-term loan to the V&A from 1950-1960. It was then returned to Dunstable for display in the Priory Church of St. Peter until 1976, when it was loaned back to the V&A following concerns raised by the parish council over the environment inside the church. It has been on long-term loan to the V&A ever since. This object was borrowed by the V&A for the 1963 exhibition of Opus Anglicanum, English medieval embroidery.
