Signed by the firm.
Text below the main scene: 'My flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.' (John 6:55).
The window replaces an earlier east window of 1850, painted by Mrs Jones Bateman, Pentre Mawr, in memory of her husband (died 1849). The window had been damaged by the weather, and was deemed out of keeping with the later glass inserted in the church (information provided by Margaret Macaulay).
