Through Leaded Glass

The beautiful Shropshire landscape is visible through the leaded glass windows in the solar, located in the North Tower of Stokesay Castle. Also visible are some of the gravestones from the church located just across the road from the castle. The family would have spent much of its time in this well-lit room. Glass was very expensive when this was built, so it was a real luxury. This was really a manor house rather than a fortified castle.
