1948
Single-light window.

technique: stained glass
size: 33 cm (width)
artist: Trena Cox

Church of St Matthew, Buckley, Flintshire
south wall of south aisle

Replaced a window destroyed by a vandal in 1947, but retaining the original Inscription: AMDG Blake Raymond Pelly. Renatus June 25th 1907.

An unusual representation. The cruciform halo identifies the figure as Christ, and the posture is that associated with the ascended and glorified Saviour.
