Figure Fragment, Alstone

Fragment of 15th century glass at St Margaret's church, Alstone, Gloucestershire (during conservation at Norgrove Studios).

 

The glass does not seem to be original to the church and is considered to have come from nearby Hailes Abbey

 

The fact that the entire figures and their surrounding architectural contexts are painted and stained on the same piece of glass perhaps indicates that these were probably parts of tracery lights, which would exclude Alstone as the provenance of this glass.
