A brass inscription to "William Clarke" is described in British History Online (published in 1912)
(http://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/herts/vol3/pp73-77)
and is described as being displayed in the church of St. Peter in Benington, Hertfordshire, England, as follows:
"The parish church of St. Peter [in Benington, Hertfordshire, England], which stands to the west of the village, is built of flint with stone dressings. The nave, which is covered with ivy, is plastered externally. The chancel and south porch are roofed with tiles and the nave with lead. The tower, which is of two stages, has an embattled parapet and a pyramidal roof. The present church, which dates from the end of the 13th or the beginning of the 14th century, originally consisted of a chancel and nave only, built, it would appear from the shields of arms that decorate them, by Sir John de Benstede (ob. 1323). The north chapel and the south porch were added about 1330, apparently by his widow, Parnel Moyne, and early in the 15th century the west tower was built by Edward Benstede (ob. 1432), and an additional arch was inserted with his monument below it between the chancel and the north chapel. The raising of the clearstory dates from somewhat later in the 15th century. The modern work upon the fabric consists of the rebuilding in 1889 of the south and east walls of the chancel and the recent restoration of the tower. ...In the nave on the east wall, to the north of the chancel arch, are two brasses, with inscriptions to William Clarke, 1591, and John Clarke, 1604."A brass memorial to "William Clarke" is mentioned in the book "Memorial Brasses in Hertfordshire Churches", by William Frampton Andrews, 1903, page 37, which states that the following brass inscription appears in the Bennington church:
"William Clarke the 4 soone of George Clarke Chaunged his liffe the xxiiii. day of May 1591 Who was as thou art, t is as thou shal be."

"There are three brasses near the Rood Loft stairway; the upper is part of a scroll which may be related to the priest's brass in the Chancel. George Clarke mentioned in the middle of the brass took the farm on the Walkern Road by force in 152l while the owner, John Norreys, was in France. Both this brass, and that of his grandson below, were on the Nave floor until 1889." (Source: http://ubbw.org.uk/Churches/StPeters/StPeters.htm)2016 Research Note:
