Stained Glass Windows
The miracles of Saint Neotus and stories from the bible are brought to life in brilliant light through coloured glass, especially on a sunny day!
How old are the windows?
Robert Tubbe, our Vicar from 1508 to 1544, was possibly the man behind the present designs.
Restoration
The windows were greatly restored by John Hedgeland in 1826-28. During this restoration Hedgeland changed parts of windows, and shifted them around, so that it is now impossible to know what they were originally like. Nevertheless in twelve of the windows, half of the glass is original.
Creation window
The finest and least restored window, the Creation Window, is full of delightful things representing the Creation (including the newly created bird flying off the tip of His finger), the Fall, Cain and Abel and lastly Noah politely doffing his cap to God as he receives his instructions.
