Stained glass windows in St Mary's church, Teynham.
"There are exceptionally long Early English lancet windows, and others of the Perpendicular period . The large East window is mid 20th Century, and the work of Hugh Easton. The original 19th Century stained glass was destroyed by an enemy land mine during the 1939-1945 war. A framed water colour painting of the original window is on display in the Church. Some hundred or more years ago Teynham Church was renowned for its stained glass windows. Now all that remains of the ancient glass is a mosaic in one East window in the North Transept, and the Bishop's Mitre and a Cross, which were the Arms of Bishop John Langdon of Rochester, 1421."
