(1) A large 4-light window. All four have the same layout with a panel at the bottom containing a poached egg plant; then a quatrefoil with four different flowers in each – lilies, iris, daisies, and roses; another rectangular panel of poached egg plants; a quatrefoil containing a saint’s head, shoulders and hands holding a scroll; more poached egg plants; and finally a trefoil with golden yellow grass plants. The legend along the bottom reads:
“JOHN DENHOLM. Session. Clerk./ DIED 12TH NOVEMBER 1872// JANET MEIKLE OR DENHOLM/ DIED 30TH APRIL 1877/ THEIR CHILDRENS A——–// TILL THE DAY BREAK AND/ THE SHADOWS FLEE AWAY”.
In the smaller tracery sections are crosses and at the apex two overlapping triangles making a 6-pointed star set in foliage.
