Two small lancet arched stained glass windows with accompanying brass plaque, which is set beneath the WW1 plaque (WMR 100658). The windows sit each side of the plaques. The left-hand one depicts an armoured St Michael the Archangel with a flaming sword and a shield bearing a white cross on a red ground, with a Latin cross within a diamond below. The right-hand one depicts St George in full armour, holding a lance flying a St George pennant and a shield bearing the St George cross, with a laurel wreath in a diamond below. The inscription is written across the bottom of the windows and is repeated in part above the incised names on the plaque.
