Memorial Details
What type of memorial is it?
How would you describe the memorial and its ornamentation?
Stained glass windows. There are two windows of two lights each.
The pair on the north depict Saints George, in armour, with a red cross on his breast, and Andrew, carrying the saltire form of cross on which he died.
The pair on the south depict Saints David and Patrick, both in full bishops’ robes. Above the head of each saint is a shield bearing the arms of the country they represent.
The name of each saint is at the foot of each window, just above the dedication. All lettering is in black elaborate script. Although the wording is the same on both windows, the layout is slightly different.

Additional Notes
Additional general notes on the memorial
1. The windows, along with the rest of the side chapel area, were restored in 1951. The restoration of the windows themselves was completed in memory of Emily Monk by her son Sidney. This suggests that there was a general overhaul when the panelling and pews were inserted in memory of the 1939-45 people who died. See other records.
