On the left-hand side are representations of the Nativity, the Magi, the star, trumpeting angels and the Agnus Dei. A tall narrow window represents the patron of the church, St Teilo, with a bell and apple tree. Water at the centre, appearing to fall from a shell, perhaps represents baptism, with a dove. Instruments of the Passion below, with a detail of Christ on the cross, the empty crosses above, the sun/moon, and the Risen Christ. Tongues of fire are at the top, and the elements of the Eucharist are found in the lower right. technique: stained glass designer: John Edwards firm/studio: Glantawe Studios Church of St Teilo, Whitchurch, Cardiff side wall Designed in 2003, the windows were installed in December 2004.  (ObjectID=5744 ImageID=11218) Original File Name=WhitchurchRC_DSC5374Bd.jpg
