English: The church of SS Peter and Paul in Shropham - glass by M Lowndes This stunning window is an early work by Mary Lowndes (1856-1929), who was an important stained-glass (and poster) artist in the Arts and Crafts Movement. She also chaired the Artists Suffrage League where she created dramatic posters, postcards and banners for the movement. Characteristic of her work is the use of bold shapes and full, rich colours often in striking combinations of green, blue, magenta and orange. St Peter's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1761300 is situated to the east of the village of Shropham, adjoined by the former vicarage. It has a massive tower which dates from the 16th century but the church building is much older. However, much of the soft stone used in building it has deteriorated and had to be replaced over the centuries. The fine north doorway > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1761345 dates from the 13th century as does the arcade inside. Apart from minor repairs, the arch-braced timber roof in the nave is original. Font > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1761448 and cover are Jacobean. The church was restored in Victorian times and most furnishings date from that time. There is one medieval carved bench end which depicts a dog > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1761417 - it marks the family pew of the Barkers, Lords of Shropham Manor, which was built for the Barker family in the 1720s. The carved reredos > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1761393 is modern and commemorates Augustus Hethersett Hemsworth who died in WW1. The stained glass in the east window > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1761389 is Victorian.
