Victorian west window, St. Mary's Lydiard Tregoze

The Victorian stained glass window depicts the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Its purely biblical nature and lack of reference to the St. John family, marks a decline in their influence.

The window was made by Alexander Gibbs & Co and is dedicated to the memory of John King by his sisters, Ann and Mary King in 1858. The Kings were a prominent family in Lydiard Tregoze and their chest tombs can be found in the graveyard.
