Unfortunately at my visit to the St Mary's Church there was damage to building, with cracks apparent above and below this Stained Glass window (visible on the inside). Restorative works are continuing.

You may easily be distracted by the artwork inside, all over the interior including the ceiling. But take the time to turn around and check out the window above the entry

Each of the twelve segments (around the central circular one, with Christ holding His cross) has somewhat similar scenes depicted, with eight being haloed men, and four of angels.There are additional much smaller triangular glass segments separating the major segments.
