Panel 12: I have no idea what is being depicted in this panel. I can't even say whether it is allegorical, or a depiction (in anachronistic dress) of a Biblical story. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I would tentatively date the glass as C15th or early C16th, but would welcome expert opinion. [Edit - May 2014] Two suggestions as follows: I would say the glass is 17th or 18th century, certainly not earlier.-- Julian P Guffogg David Verey's Pevsner guide says that the church has "fragments of medieval glass and some foreign medallions." I think these folk may be amongst the foreigners, which would account for their unusual appearance. - "Tiger" Previous panel Image] Next panel Image]
