Nether Stowey - North Aisle North Window Detail 2

The church of Saint Mary is the parish church of the village of Nether Stowey near Bridgwater in Somerset. The church can be found next to Stowey Court a little outside the village. Since the end of the 1960s the church has been 'cut off' from the village by the A39 bypass.

 

The church has a number of Victorian stained glass windows, two of which are in areas not open to the general public. This picture shows a detail from the window in the North Aisle of the church which depicts elements of the story of the Good Samaritan, see Luke x : 30 to 37. In this picture can be seen the panel where the Samaritan leaves money with the innkeeper to provide for the care of the injured traveller.
