Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: St Mary's church - C14 grisaille glass. See > 1384539 for detail.
St Mary's > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384466 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384482 is located on an elevation above the village of Saxlingham Nethergate > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384404 adjoining the Old Hall on one side and the Old Rectory on the other. Unusually, the C14 square tower has a clock with a sun dial underneath it. The church was extensively restored > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384485 in the late 19th century, when the large north aisle was added. The south door > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384477 dates from medieval times and is pierced by two decorative iron grilles which have wooden cover-hatches. The nave roof including the corbels is original C15 and the octagonal font > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384572 dates from the same time. The most historically interesting feature of St Mary's is the stained glass > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384492 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384527 some of which medieval and made by stained glass artists of the Norwich School. Several windows contain 14th century grisaille (monochrome) glass with silver stain > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384496 - which produces the bright yellow colour. The four roundels > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384558 set into one of the chancel south windows are believed to be the earliest figurative glass in Norfolk, made not later than 1250. Some of the old glass of the church is believed to have come from neighbouring St Mary's at the former hamlet of Saxlingham Thorpe - a public footpath leads past the ruin > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1384209 located beside Plummer's Lane, further to the south. St Mary's church is open every day. |
