This Window illustrates the return to an idealised Peace.
The quotation for this windown reads: "Man goeth forth unto his work & to his labour until the evening"
Psalm 104 v23
Above the word “Evening” in the bottom right hand corner of this window there appears a scratched inscription reading “Ward & Hughes London 1919” – the fabricators of the windows.
Starting from the bottom of the left-hand side and going in a clockwise direction, the panels illustrate:
