The following info is from the Parish Web site

"The atmosphere inside the church is of a dignified grandeur, and one of the main reasons is the interesting range of glass, ranging from the 1850s up to the late 20th Century. A sequence of uncharacteristically good glass by Mayer & Company depicts pairs of Saints. A Geoffrey Webb window depicts scenes from the life of Christ, and a glorious Annunciation window in what appears to be the Kempe & Co style is probably by Hardman.
The two aisles end in chapels, and it is in the Blessed Virgin Mary chapel at the east end of the south aisle that you'll find the Annunciation window. The chapel at the east end of the north aisle contains the Sacred heart altar, and a great curiosity, a figure brass to an earlier Priest of the parish." Text Source: (
