Stained glass window in St James the Greater church, Dadlington. All eight windows in the church are plain glass except the east windows in the south aisle which was "inserted in 1904 and is probably the work of a well known firm of Victorian church furnishers, Shrigley and Hunt. It was purchased out of a bequest of £100 left by John Chun of Orchard Farm.
No mediaeval glass survives in the building, despite the fact that the arms of the Cotton family were found by Nichols "
barely discernable on an old pane of painted glass", and that some fragments of stained glass were recorded as late as 1877."
