Commonwealth glass windows of Halifax Minster, installed after the English Civil War. West Yorkshire. UK. The Puritans who were prominent in the town in the 17th century, thought stained glass with its ‘images’ was an abomination. During the Commonwealth (1649–1660) many plain-glass leaded windows of a unique design were installed, paid for by Mrs Dorothy Waterhouse (-Wikipedia)
