The window contains a medley of glass which is believed to date from the 14th century, restored in the 19th century by J & J King. The two figures in the main lights depict St Jude (carrying a boat) and St Philip.
The main figure on the right is St Matthew, although following the restoration he has been given the fuller’s bat of St James the Less.
David King believes that the small seated figure, wearing a red garment in the upper left hand light may be the original 14th century figure of Mary and would have formed part of a Coronation scene.
Other fragments include a censing angel and the Foliot coat of arms
