Standing figures of Gabriel, Michael and Raphael in the three-light window. Scenes below of Gabriel visiting Mary, Michael fighting the dragon and Raphael with Tobit.


firm/studio: Robert J. Newbery

Church of St Elvan, Aberdare, Rhondda Cynon Taff
east wall of the north chapel

Text below standing figures: 'He shall give his Angels charge over thee' (Psalm 91:11 and Luke 4:10).

Dedication: 'AD MDCCCCXI To the Glory of God in gratitude for spiritual blessings received within this Church.' Although the donor is not named, their heraldry (a blue shield with three stags, and a monogram on a red shield) probably identifies the donor.
