More about this scene
In the north-west corner, Temple Moore designed a window with tracery to match that of the old three-light east window, which he had relocated to the south-west corner. The window was glazed by the Pease family in memory of Lady Pease of the nearby Hutton and Pinchinthorpe estate. The font in Victorian high Gothic style was given to the church by the Trevor family, solicitors in the town. In 1967, as part of a reorganisation of the church, the font was moved to the north-east corner, and in 1978 this corner was refurbished and dedicated as a memorial chapel in memory of the dead of the town and of two world wars. As a focal point, Temple Moore's reredos, which had been removed from the high altar in 1967, was restored and placed above the altar of the new chapel, where it remains to this day.
