Stained glass at St Thomas's


A fortnight ago I showed you the outside of St Thomas's and then last week the inside of St Thomas's.


This week I am showing some of the stained glass windows.


One of the four windows on the south wall no longer exists.


There are at least two more stained glass windows in the church but their placements make them very difficult to photograph.


Since 2012, St. Thomas has been placed on the English Heritage Buildings at Risk register, and the group "Friends of St. Thomas" was set up in 2013 as a way of securing the future of the church for generations to come.


Visit the Church website for more information.

  12. The stained glass alone is worthy of renovation. Hope they have success with the campaign. Thank you for sharing the beauty of the windows and for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
