Inscription: caption below photographs of window EAST WINDOW - ST. PAUL'S CHURCH, NEW CROSS, MANCHESTER We are only able to display one panel of this large window, but this montage, made up / of prints of the individual panels when received into our store, shows the main area of / glass. Above this was the elaborate tracery, still in situ in the church, now declared / redundant. The window was removed and replaced with clear glass to avoid further dam- / age by vandals: we have every hope that it, and its tracery, will be re-used elsewhere.
