Many persons on entering York’s ancient churches are pleasantly 
surprised by the extent and beauty of the mediaeval painted glass, 
for in other towns there is often not a fragment to be seen. 
The principal figures or subjects occupy the upper part of the 
window, with the chief figure or event in the centre; underneath, 
a Latin inscription, occasionally with date, crosses the window. 
Below are other subjects, with the donor, his wife and family.

The Church of All Saints, North Street, is justly renowned for 
its old glass, which is contained in three-light windows. The 
earliest is at the east end of the aisles and appears to have been 
made during the first quarter of the fourteenth century. 
1 The Rector (Rev. P. J. Shaw) published in 1908 a sumptuous volume on the 
Church, in which are coloured illustrations of the glass by Miss Mabel Leaf.
