Perpendicular octagonal font with panelled stem.

STAINED GLASS

Glass in chancel by Clayton and Bell.

The village church of St. Mary the Virgin in Arlingham dates from the 1350's and is in the Decorated style and has been little altered, avoiding Victorian improvements. Some of its stained glass windows is original, making it amongst the oldest in Gloucestershire, and is of the highest quality. The church is maintained in immaculate condition with a large number of loyal and hardworking parishioners cleaning, polishing and decorating as well as tending the churchyard, so I understand.
