Trinity College, Cambridge -- Stained Glass in the Chapel Windows South 3
I couldn't find many pictures of Henry Holiday's Stained Glass windows in Trinity College, Cambridge so I decided to create my own pages. The windows are numbered 1 to 8 from the Ante Chapel to the Altar. I have tried to identify the person depicted in each window and provide links with information about that person. If you have any corrections, comments or advice please contact me at john-saville@ntlworld.com.
