From The Welshman 10 July 1857
'There is a handsome stained glass window at the east; and the one at the west end of the Church was given by John Propert, Esq., the present High Sheriff of the County, and has an extremely elegant appearance; and a smaller one, given by Mr. Withers, adds much to the effect in the chancel. '

Editor's response: The architect had a habit of providing (usually small) windows for the churches that he designed in west Wales.
