Inside St Martin
Three of the windows in the chancel are in memory of Arthur Majendie: there is the large three-panelled
east window; another, at the west end, depicting Daniel looking forward Jerusalem, with the words:
'Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house', is inscribed: 'To the glory of God and in memory of
Revd. Arthur Majendie, who restored this house and rebuilt the chancel. This window is dedicated by
his widow. He ceased from his labours 15th January 1895'.
On the north side of the sanctuary is the third window, given by three children 'In memory of a loving
father'. They also gave one in memory of their mother, who died at the age of 91. This is on the south
side of the chancel.

Also on the south side is an interesting round foliated window; it is a copy of Sir Joshua Reynolds'
'Choir of the Cherubs' and is dedicated 'to the glory of God and in thankful memory of numberless

a cousin of Sir Winston.

others “he gave by the will the sum of twenty shillings per annum for ever to keep the organ
of this church in proper and necessary repair ... And the sum of fifteen shillings per annum for
ever to be paid to the choir of singers belonging to and singing in this church”.
