The stained glass windows in
St Chrysostom's Church are
magnificent.
Most of the windows are the work of
the outstanding stained glass artists
Burlison and Grylls, and have clearly
been influenced by the Pre-
Raphaelite style.
Many of the windows depict saints of
the British Isles, or great teachers of
the Church.
John Keble, and Edward Pusey,
heroes of the Anglo Catholic
movement are honoured with their
own windows.
The pale elaborate canopies,
detailed paintwork, dark robes and
magnificent rich colours are
characteristic of their work.

The windows have some lovely detail in them - including heraldic devices, mongrams, and even reproduction
of photographs. The saints windows frequently have appropriate symbols, and the saints often have near
them simple text bearing scrolls.

work of the local Manchester Artist Walter Pearce.

Burlison and Grylls windows and have a distinctive
use of colour. One window commemorates several of
the major campaigns of the First World War.
