    Memorial Window Description & History

    Stained Glass Window at Brighton [Gardenvale] St. Stephen's Anglican Church - Memorial Window Description & History

    St. Stephen's Anglican Church built a Warriors' Chapel as a memorial to the servicemen and women of the parish. Napier Waller prepared six window designs for windows that represented various aspects of the 1914-18 and 1939-45 wars. The windows were completed for the official unveiling on Remembrance Day 1951. Each window was quoted at £100, which represented a high price in the early 1950s. At the time that the series of six windows were ordered from Mervyn Napier Waller, only four were promised payment. The congregation, through general offerings, was responsible for guaranteeing Women in War, one of the remaining two windows.
