The stained glass windows were installed from the mid 19th century onwards. Six are dedicated to various members of the Berners Family. The south window is dedicated to George Winslow, a vicar of Tugby for 27 years.

The earliest glass is of 1853, in the east window of the chancel aisle, and is armorial glass. Next come the chancel north and east windows of 1856, and the south aisle window of 1862 depicting scenes from the life of Christ. The western aisle window has scenes from the childhood of Christ, 1873, and the 2 north nave windows, which form a pair, are of 1875.
