Notes
J Polsue, A Complete Parochial History of the County of Cornwall, vol III p 93 . William Lake, Truro, 1870 states that
the chancel window represents the Ascension and was donated by the rector, the Revd Francis DuBoulay.
Reports of the 1871 restoration state that the
east window was new, which implies that this window was moved from Chancel east to its current
position by then. If it was inserted in Chancel east after the death of Henry Phillpotts, which occurred on
18th September 1869 , it would have
been moved to Nave west little more than a year after its insertion. So perhaps it was inserted
in Chancel east during Henry Phillpotts’ lifetime,
for example as part of the celebrations of his 90th birthday
(Gloucestershire Chronicle May 25, 1867 p 4 ).
This is consistent with the absence of an ‘In memoriam ’
inscription.
*Manufacturer possibly Gibbs on stylistic grounds.
