St Edward’s School

Over the summer, we took advantage of a gloriously sunny day to photograph the stained glass windows in the Chapel. Pictured is the Kenneth Grahame memorial window, completed in 1936 by Christopher Webb, one of the finest stained glass designers of the 20th century. It is illustrated with a scene from Grahame’s childhood memoir, Dream Days … ‘the sky was a feckless blue, the flags danced in the breeze … I was through the town by this time and out on the other side of the hill, where I had always wanted to be; and sure enough, there was the harbour, all thick with curly ships …’. Grahame’s name is flanked by snake’s head fritillaries, the county flowers of Oxfordshire. @teddies_rhubarb #ose @teddies_history #ourhistory #teddieschapel #sunshine @christophercornwellSep 23 2021
