Long Description:In the South Aisle there is an East window with two panels
depicting the Annunciation and the Nativity. They are designed by
C.E. Kempe and were given to the Church by Canon Luckock in memory
of his mother.
The Chancel windows are all by Messrs. Hardman of Birmingham.
The central East window shows Christ's Nativity and Baptism,
Crucifixion and Ascension with episodes from the life of the
Blessed Virgin Mary. On the South side of the Chancel are various
incidents from the New Testament with St Mary Magdalene and St
Peter present.
The West window in the Baptistery is high in the tower wall. It
depicts Christ's Second Coming and the Day of Judgement. It was a
gift from Revd. F. M. Stopford to commemorate his fiftieth year in
Holy Orders.
It is with thanks to the interesting Church guide supplied
within the Church that this information is available.
