Stained glass windows in St Guthlac's church, Stathern.
The original east window would have been much smaller and to a different design to the existing which dates from about 1850. The stained glass was inserted in 1905. Note the figure of Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln holding a model of Lincoln Cathedral including steeples as it was in his day 800 years ago, and underneath, the tame swan reputed to follow him around Lincoln!
The two side windows to the South wall are probably reproductions of the original and again date from about 1850.
