How would you describe the memorial and its ornamentation?
Stained glass window with five lights with figures in them and seven tracery lights. Inscription in wooden panel below

Reason for status change (if applicable/optional)
Need clearer images to fully transcribe the wording on the window and a clear image of the plaque with names so full details can be added here.
