Westminster Abbey
The west window
Back to list

This large window was unveiled by The Queen in 1995 to mark the culmination of a twenty two year programme of Abbey restoration. It incorporates coats of arms, initials and cyphers of donors to the Restoration Appeal and particularly honours Sir John Templeton (born 1912), a major benefactor. The arms of the Sovereign, the Duke of Edinburgh and the Prince of Wales also appear. The design is by John Lawson and the glass is by Goddard and Gibbs.
