St Tysilio's Church (East Window), Sellack
The south wall of the nave has two large windows which are treated like dormers either side of the large porch, one lighting a west gallery on which is the organ, and the other (with a medieval panel of glass showing the Crucifixion) lighting the pulpit and tester, a grand Jacobean piece. Both the west bay of the aisle and the transept have a single grand 17th century and 18th century memorial respectively. The glass in the east window is equally important, a complete survival from 1630, reusing some olde fragments. And here is the explanation of the window at Foy which so impressed the people at the manor there that they ordered a copy of this window for their church some 40 years later, including the tracery.
