The four nave windows in St.Andrew's churchwere glazed by Emily Owles & Son of nearby Halesworth but the designer is not know. Bills show the windows to have been installed in 1860-1876.

"The nave windows are worthy of note, each one representing a religious symbol. On the north wall the lily (symbol of Advent, the Virgin Mary and the Immaculate Conception) and the olive (the symbol of peace). The south wall has the passion flower (the 5 stamens represent the 5 stigmata) and the rose, symbolising the purity of the Virgin Mary (the rose without thorns). These windows have been likened to those in Dennington church by C Woolnough but seem much finer and more delicate. The stonework was thoroughly restored in the work in the 1870’s ."
