The Nave - North Aisle

The 19th century windows in the north aisle, are to my eye, the most attractive in the building.

The east window in the north aisle depicts (from left to right) Abel, Christ crowned with thorns, and Melchizedec.

This is the most easterly window in the north wall (subjects not identified) and the next along to the west, which depicts St Augustine of Canterbury and Saint Bede the Venerable.

The final window in the north wall is more modern and carries the memorial "To the dear memory of Maud Mary Frewer who died aged 24 years on January 26th 1906 RIP".

The eastern window has tracery which is elaborate by English standards and suggests a European influence.
