Five-light window with standing figures of saints. From left to right: Brigitta (Brigid of Ireland) holding a cross and book with an ox below; Nicholas holding three purses on a book; Catherine with book, sword and her wheel; and David and Botolph, both holding models of their churches.

The upper parts of the central three lights show the figures of Gabriel and Mary (the Annunciation) either side of a depiction of the Trinity: God the father supporting Christ on the cross with the dove of the Holy Spirit. Also shields with the chalice with the host, the dove of the Holy Sprit over the waters of baptism, another symbol of the Trinity and the arms of the Diocese of St Davids.
