Further angels in the tracery lights. technique: stained glass firm/studio: Ward & Hughes Church of St Catherine, Llanfaes, Anglesey north wall of the north aisle Signed and dated by the firm. Text: 'Father in thy gracious keeping leave we now thy servant sleeping'. Given in memory of Sir Richard Lewis Mostyn Williams Bulkeley of Baron Hill by M.E. Williams Bulkeley in 1884. Sir Richard Bulkeley (1833-84) was the eleventh baronet. However the signature, and the fact that the aisle was not completed until 1885, date the window to the year after it was given.  (ObjectID=4117 ImageID=7683) Original File Name=Llanfaes_DSC5643A.jpg
