The window featured in this listing is of three figures, It is impossible to get near the window in the church due to the suspended ceiling. So its hard to know for certain, but I think the window shows three Saints, or perhaps two Saints and a figure in the center, as the good shepherd, or perhaps the Lamb of God.

The Saint on the Left is Dewi Sant (Saint David) The Saint on the right is St.Samlet, the patron saint of the Church.
