Windows in the South Aisle

The stained glass windows in the south wall, which are by Lawrence Lee (1909-2011), date from 1949 to 1955, and represent lost churches associated with the three united parishes: St Magnus and his ruined church on Egilsay, St Margaret of Antioch with her lost church in New Fish Street, St Michael with his lost church in Crooked Lane (demolished to make way for the present King William Street) and St Thomas Becket with his chapel on old London Bridge within the parish of St Magnus. Lawrence Lee was an assistant to Martin Travers until the latter’s death in 1948.  Travers may have had a hand in the initial design of the post-War windows for St Magnus.
