1855

Three-light window filled with heraldry.

Church of St John the Baptist, Cardiff
north wall of the north aisle chapel

The central light depicts the arms of John Patrick Stuart, third marquess of Bute, while the outer lights include the arms of previous owners of Cardiff Castle from 1091 to 1814.

The window notes that the aisle was acquired during the minority of the marquess in 1852. It was restored by his mother Sophia Hastings, marchioness of Bute.
