Designer unknown, made by Reuben Bennett.
East window, St Paul, New Cross, Manchester.
The designer of this window has not been identified, but it was made in the workshops of Reuben Bennett, one of a handful of Manchester firms influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement in the 1900s. The window is noteworthy for the extensive use of 'plating', a technique whereby two pieces of glass are sandwiched within the same (very wide) leads. This method of creating intense colours was much used by Arts and Crafts designers and by American Studios such as Tiffany of New York.
