Robert Lydall (1678-1742), Rector of Wytham 1712-1742, is commemorated by a stone under the chancel arch. From 1697-1725 he was first Demy and then Fellow of Magdalen, and from 1724 held the livings of both Standlake and Wytham. He managed the 2nd Earl's estates and was his private chaplain.
On the east wall of the chancel near the window is a small brass tablet in memory of Henry Octavius Coxe (1811-1881). He was Bodley's Librarian 1860-1881 and Rector of Wytham 1868- 1881.
A stone tablet on the south wall of the nave near the gallery commemorates Raymond, Hope and Hazel ffennell, the last owners of the village to live at the manor house. The stone was put up in 1964 by the Wytham Parochial Church Council to record their interest in the church and parish. The ffennells are buried below the south wall of the church, in ground once belonging to the churchyard.
