Summary[edit]

Description
English: St John the Baptist's Church - stained glass window by M.E.A. Rope. Stained glass window by M.E.A. Rope, dated 1963, with a tortoise as a signature - an excellent example of the artist's later period work. To distinguish herself from her namesake cousin Marga (Margaret Agnes Rope) - also a stained glass artist - she used the professional name of M.E. Aldrich Rope (incorporating her mother's maiden name) or M.E.A. Rope. Because of her nickname 'Tor' (short for tortoise), she occasionally used a tortoise as a signature for some of her windows.

M.E.A. Rope also created the four stained glass roundels in the nave windows, all depicting scenes from the life of St John the Baptist: 595424 / 595427 / 595429 / 595431
