The North Nave Windows

The North Nave Windows

The north side of the nave is the right side of the church looking at the altar, from the door of the porch as far as the front benches. There are five windows in the north wall of the nave and we have numbered them 6 to 10. Window number 6 is next to the porch door and number 10 is nearest to the altar.

Windows 1 to 5 are in the left side of the church looking at the altar (the south side of the nave) with number 1 next to the altar and number 5 nearest to the porch door. So if you stand in the nave facing the altar and turn to the left through a complete circle, you will see the nave windows in order from 1 to 10. The windows appear in the same order in the menu on the left.

The windows all have the same decorative features but in different colours. Each window has a different main detail in the centre of the window, such as that below left, but they are all connected with Christ’s passion – all except window number 1. At the bottom of each window there is a dedication such as that below right.
