Stained Glass of Buckinghamshire Churches
Return to Church: All Saints, Hillesden or select another window
Location in Church: | East |
Type: | 5 lights |
Size (width x height): | 10' 3" x 18' 5" or 3.12m x 5.62m |
Subject(s): | Saints, popes, bishops in tracery
|
Date Made: | 16C |
Notes on Window: | The stained glass that survives could well date from the original building which was completed in 1495. The glass in the east window now is quite an assortment of pieces in the 10 lights of the tracery. There are various amounts of different figures, but some of them can still be identified. There is also some glass remaining in the heads (or very tops) of the main lights, which is also a common feature around the church.
