St Peter and St Thomas, Stambourne, Essex A proper village, albeit a remote one, and at its heart a huge square Norman tower, a most attractive sight, reminiscent of nearby Little Bardfield. The outer doors are locked open. This was a revisit after only a year or two, and I stepped again happily into a church of no small interest, with a range of medieval glass of donors, etc, which is remarkable for being so late, the 1530s - think Sheldon, Denston, Long Melford. There is also a contemporary screen with painted Saints, better than those at Great Yeldham, I thought. Best of all, in my opinion, a window of 2008 by Derek Hunt in the north aisle which is one of the best USAAF memorial windows in East Anglia and which shows there is life in the art of stained glass after the Millennium Windows dumbing down debacle.

This window is a mosaic of mediaeval glass fragments which include an angel and a devil whispering in the ears of a triple-crowned pope.
For your Just Too Cool file... a reader alerted me to a post at Daniel Mitsui's blog. This, if true, really is just too cool: SOLAR-POWERED NANOTECH-PURIFIED AIR in MEDIAEVAL CHURCHES Information Week: The glaziers who created gold-painted stained glass windows for mediaeval churches in

A circular walk from St Neot though the valley of the River Loveny, past a prehistoric settlement, through bluebell woodland and along the River Fowey, and returning via the church, famous for its mediaeval stained-glass.

What if they had the slick, highly original advertising we have today back in mediaeval times? Today you’ve been making that “what if” into “this”.

Consecrated in 1497 but not completed until 1520, St. Mary's Church in Fairford, Gloucestershire, was built with funds from a local wealthy wool merchant, John Tame. It is a very good example of a Cotswold Perpendicular Gothic church, not least because it has the most complete set of mediaeval stained glass of any parish church in Britain as well as several carved wooden misericords. The 28 stained glass windows were made between 1500-17 by the king's glazier Barnard Flower, using many Dutch artisans whose style is said to be visible in the images. This picture shows souls being taken to hell, from a window depicting the Last Judgement.

Demons carrying off the souls of the Damned. Detail of the Great West Window, St Mary's Church, Fairford. "The Church of England parish church of Saint Mary is renowned for its complete set of medieval stained glass, stone carvings and misericords. Built in the early 1490s, the church is an example of late Perpendicular Gothic architecture that is characterised by slim stone window mullions and light but strong buttresses. The style enabled larger windows than previously, allowing much more light into the building. Grade 1 listed by English Heritage, St. Mary's is of national historical and architectural importance because it houses the most complete set of mediaeval stained glass windows in the country, attributed to Barnard Flower, and its structure and details remains unaltered since originally built."
