The window was designed and made by Edward Payne in 1979, at a cost of £337. It was given in memory of Marjorie Helen Hewer (1899–1977).
The treatment of the faces of Mary and Joseph is very different, and the head and forearm of Joseph is surely a restoration, perhaps by Drew Pritchard, who restored the windows of the church in 2001.A drawing of the same scene, which appears to have been intended for the window, can be found on the Box Village website. The design has been compressed into the narrow opening of the window. (ObjectID=5328 ImageID=10513) Original File Name=TrearddurBay_DSC5813A.jpgRecord added by Martin Crampin.
