about 1916

Single-light window with standing figure of Michael in armour, with sword and shield with red cross. Panel beneath depicting Christ on the cross.


firm/studio: Burlison & Grylls

Church of St Paul, Grangetown, Cardiff
east wall of the north aisle

The text behind the Crucifixion is the same as that on the chancel east window: 'Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.' (John 15:13). Unlike the chancel east window however, this is a private war memorial, for Percival Storey Henderson, of the London Scottish Regiment, who was killed in France in July 1916 aged 20.
