The other window above the reading desk contains panels of old glass which belong to the 15th Century school of East Anglian glass painting which can be seen here in fragments and in all its splendour in the churches of St. Peter Mancroft, Norwich; East Harling, North Tuddenham and Ringland in Norfolk, and Long Melford, Suffolk. Where this glass originally belonged is unknown, but there is a record that it filled the windows of a small building known as "The Hermitage" which stood in Letheringsett Hall garden about the year 1820. Subsequently it was inserted into the windows of a summerhouse, but was removed, re-assembled and placed here together with a St. Andrew's Cross in new glass by Lady Cozens-Hardy.


The east window by Frederick Preedy (1876) is worthy of mention. In 1958, the two windows on the south side of the chancel were filled with stained glass. That nearest the altar representing the Transfiguration is by Christopher Webb of St. Albans and was given by the Rev. C. L. S. Linnell and his mother in memory of Lawrence Gale Linnell.
