Queen Victoria Diamond Jubilee Window, 1897.

By Heaton, Butler & Bayne.

 

This north aisle window was installed in commemoration of The Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria. After a bomb attack by the IRA on Manchester in 1996 the window was restored in memory of Maria Isabella Blythe Nicholls (1898-1985).

 

Clement Heaton (1824-1882).

James Butler (1830-1913).

Robert Turnill Bayne (1837-1915).

 

Clement Heaton, the son of a Methodist minister in Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire, was in 1851 a glass painter for William Holland of Warwick. He was in London by 1853 and briefly in business alone before going into partnership with James Butler in 1855. Around 1860 the two briefly shared premises with Clayton and Bell, an association of lasting importance, as the third member of the firm, Robert Turnill Bayne, who was also from Warwick and became chief designer in 1862, was an employee of theirs. Heaton pioneered the use of softer colours, but Bayne’s advent brought the firm to widespread attention. Most of their earlier glass was gothic in style, but the firm adapted to later influences, notably that of Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The firm was used widely by Sir Arthur Blomfield, but in later years less of its output was glass for churches. Heaton’s son Clement John joined for a short time, but fell out with his partners. The firm continued until 1953 under descendants of other partners, after which most of its archives were destroyed for lack of interest.

  

This is our house at Hailuoto island.

This collection of windows awaits installation at one of Toronto's West Donlands building projects. It must be worth a lot. I know. Several years ago we replaced all the windows in our century home and the job didn't come cheap.

 

Incidentally, from time to time I reflect on the miracle of windows. For most of mankind's history we didn't have glass windows to let in the light and keep out the weather. Thank goodness for glass.

Remember to always look up

Designed by Francis Spear and dedicated in 1929, this window in the parish church of St Mary the Virgin, Eccles, Lancashire was donated by the sons of Dr William Worrell Mayo, in memory of their father. Dr Mayo was baptised in Eccles in 1819 but emigrated to the USA in 1845 and died in Rochester, Minnesota in 1911. His two sons also became surgeons and the three men worked together in St Mary's Hospital in Rochester when it was opened by the Sisters of St Francis in 1889.

 

In 1909 the father and his two sons set up the world's first integrated group practice, which is now the world renowned Mayo Clinic, with a staff of almost two thousand. The emblems in the window were specifically chosen to illustrate Dr Mayo's interests and achievements.
