A painted reredos by A. E. Lemmon from 1940. Open, the triptych shows the Resurrected christ above an empty tomb with an Angel of the Resurrection, and the disciples and two Marys arriving. A lot of gold leaf is used in the design. Closed, the scene is of The Agony in the Garden, with less gold used. Funded by Mrs S. K. Watts, in memory of her husband Robert Knowle Watts.
