Chancel

East window

Detail

The glass in the east window was designed by Sir Ninian Comper and dates from 1896. At the centre is a figure of the Virgin and Child 'surrounded by the Holy Kindred in a fifteenth century English idiom, using rich blues, ruby reds, murrey purples and with plenty of yellow stain' as Barton (2018) describes it.

North wall of Chancel

Barton, 226-228

Window nIV, which is one of two identical fifteenth-century windows that light the
choir of the church, contains late fifteenth-century glazing, which may be in situ.
The remaining glass consists of a fragmentary roundel charged with the eagle symbol
of St John the Evangelist, surrounded by a rod and acanthus border. As there
remains a second border in the next light, we can probably assume this contained a
second Evangelist symbol and it is perhaps reasonable to conjecture that the two
lights of the identical window on the south side of the chancel contained the
remaining two. There is no evidence for the wider setting of the roundels within the
context of their windows, though it could be conjectured that they were placed within
quarry glazing, to maximise light in the choir stalls.
