Description of arms - Chequy?

[Jeremy Pyne]

Dear all - snapped this coat of Arms in Upton Pyne yesterday  - the arms to the left are the Pyne family, the one to the right I think is the Larder family, but not sure as the field looks to be set in blocks and might be whats called Chequy - any thoughts. The Larder arms are described elsewhere as  Argent, Three Piles sable each charged with as many bezants.

OOps I've not not done well with the attachment , hopefully it can still be made out

Chequy is rather like a chess-board
Traditionally there should be at least 20 squares.

What you have there is a chief dancetty (a zig-zag line of partition), with a field that looks like a brick wall?
see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_of_the_field#Lines_of_division

Not that's helping me much!

Aha! Reynell
Argent, masonry sable a chief indented of the second.

Fantastic - Good work , I've come across Reynell as a name somewhere - just have to remind myself where this sits in the lineage - was wondering how old the sculptures in the church were - this should help - Really interesting thank you.

Got it now - the heiress of the Pyne family at Upton Pyne Constance was the daughter of Nicholas Pyne and wife Joan Reynell - hence the armorial. She married William Larder whose family took on the manor for some generations through the 16th century
