The tracery of this window is partly destroyed, but it evidently had two pointed lights with a circle above, all unfoliated. The mouldings of the arch (cut b, p. 3) are rich; the filleted roll on the outside of the jamb (cut <•, p. 3) is rather peculiar; the shafts have disappeared, but the capitals.
