4. Large window above altar.
I asked the Vicar of the church which of the windows are by Tiffany. She replied that they had once been authenticated but that the documentation had been misplaced. I present photos of all the windows; perhaps a Tiffany expert will be able to pick them out. They are obviously differing styles.
