Mostly 19th century Stained glass windows in St Thomas' church, Melbury Abbas.
"the big west window where much blue glass conveys a feeling of tranquility. In the middle, Christ offers his peace to St. Thomas and to St. John. The figures are framed in a straight sided Gothic arch which suggests a sanctuary. The glass forms a mosaic of bright colour. Only one window in the north wall of the nave contains stained glass, the Carver window, a remarkable piece which shows considerable advance on the techniques of the earlier glass."
