Church of St Peter, Bont-goch, Ceredigion
reredos on the east wall of the sanctuary

An excellent example of a restrained Tractarian altarpiece. It may be another example in this church of the collaboration between Butterfield and Alexander Gibbs, as Gibbs certainly worked in tile painting as well as in stained glass.
