THE SEAT OFHIS GRACE THE DUKE OF NEWCASTLE, K.G.

Three windows for the principal staircase, filled with shields of arms, badges, &c., shewing the descent of the family; on grounds of rich mosaic patterns, and ornamentally bordered.

For the church of St. George, three large lancet openings; in the centre one, the figure of Christbearing the cross, copied from the altar picture in the chapel of Magdalen College, Oxford; the two side openings filled by shields of arms, shewing the alliances of the family of Johnson. These windows were presented to the church by George Ormerod, Esq., F.S.A. A lithographed print was executed of these windows, but from the carelessness of the printer but very few impressions could be taken off.
