South aisle, west elevation #StJohnKeynsham #Somerset for #StainedGlassSunday
A church of considerable scale with tower, 8-bay nave and chancel, north and south aisles and south porch. There are some examples of above average Victorian glass to be seen of which this is one
Gloria!...
The church of #StJohnKeynsham #Somerset is open! But also it's been hired out which restricts the photography and means everything is photographed upwards. Just not Mouse's month...

Cracking narrative stained glass, from St Peter's, Daylesford. I assume Daniel is in the lion's den, centre, with poor Jonah desperately trying to escape a fearsomely toothy whale beneath.
#StainedGlassSunday A lively & engaging approach to relaying Bible stories @beverleystanford.bsky.social.

A tall, thin stained glass window, depicting Christ as carved in the Northumbrian style, right hand raised in benediction. A wooden crucifix stands in front of the window. It was designed by Alex Haynes, of Albion Glass, Brampton.
'Christ from the Bewcastle Cross', from the Millennium window at St. Cuthbert's Church, Bewcastle; designed in homage to the magnificent 7th/8th century decorated cross in the churchyard.
A Happy Easter, to all who celebrate.

Cathedral description of the window - The Rider family of builders were involved in the building and rebuilding of the cathedral over many years. Thomas Ryder was the builder of the current nave in 1895. The three-light window portrays key events in the Cathedral's history. Left: The upper scene shows some nuns and a ferryman, a reference to a 9th Century convent on the site which was funded by dues from a ferry across the river. Below, Peter de Roches, Bishop of Winchester (1205-1238) surveys the burning ruins of the Priory in 1212. Centre: The virgin and the boy Jesus who carries a carpenter's set square. This refers to the dedication of the Cathedral of St Saviour and St Mary Overie and the theme of building. Below, two bishops, William Gifford of Winchester and Edward Talbot of Southwark, with the plans of the cathedral. Right: Bishop Thorold surveys the new nave being built in 1895. Below him, figures of the different building periods of the Cathedral stand in prayer around the Cathedral tower. They are in the habits of: a nun of the 9th Century convent; a medieval bishop representing all the bishops who restored or repaired it; an Elizabethan merchant representing the vestrymen or merchants, known as the 'Bargainers, who bought the church from James I to use as their parish church; a Victorian churchman from the time of the 19th Century restoration of the church. Throughout the window are depicted stone masons, carpenters and other building trade workers; a glazier climbs a ladder carrying a panel of stained glass; there is also a seated figure of Thomas Francis Rider whose firm rebuilt the nave in 1895.
A builder with a trowel. Inscription reads - In memory of THOMAS FRANCIS RIDER by whose skill the nave of the Cathedral was rebuilt to the glory of GOD. Born 1843, died 1922

More wonderful stained glass from St Michael’s Church, Doddiscombsleigh, Devon.
Restored at least twice since the 15th century, the central figure is a Victorian interpretation, but a lot of the original glass has survived.

A stained glass window in oranges and reds of a golden fleur de lise over what looks like a clump of spreading white daffodils or maybe morning glories. The photo is of the “wrong” side of the window, which is behind protective bars and set into a gray stone wall.
It’s still Sunday for a few hours yet here so… #StainedGlassSunday #cemeterysunday
