This window was created as a millennium project in 2000. It uses the village maypole as a base for Christian symbolism, sprouting branches to represent variously the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, the Tree of The Cross, and the Tree of Life. (It would have been better illustrated from inside, but the church was not open when I was there!)
