Mr Smallwood reviews the publication 'The Painted Glass of Lydiard Tregoze' by Michael Archer which had been published by Thamesdown Borough Council.

He congratulates the author on his identification of Van Linge as the glass painter of the window in Lydiard House and the East window in St. Mary's Church, but corrects certain references to Mr Archer's interpretation of the heraldry in the church window.
