A new book on the Stained Glass of All Saint’s Church in Stamford will be launched on Tuesday, 1 November 2016 with an event at the church. The book explores the history of the stained glass in the church, and introduces the iconography and patronage of each window. It considers the significance of the church’s stained glass, which includes previously unstudied Victorian and twentieth-century windows made by internationally noted artists. The photography displayed in the book gives the reader a chance to view close-up sections of the windows which contain details not easily visible with the naked eye.

The author, Rachel Arnold, is a graduate of the University of York’s Conservation a Heritage Management masters programme, and has extensive practical experience in the heritage field. She will give talks on the making of her new book at 2pm and 6pm, and refreshments will be available.

To reserve a place at the launch and pre-order the book, visit the website.  Copies of the book will also be available to purchase on the launch day.
