A STUNNING new stained glass window at St Petroc?s Church, Inwardleigh, was dedicated at a special service last Sunday. Money for the project was raised by the Friends of St Petroc?s, with about 70 friends attending the service, some coming from as far away as the Isle of Man. The initial idea for the stained glass window originated as a millennium project, and it has taken seven years of work to achieve. The window was designed by artist Jane Grey from Shropshire, who has displayed her work all over the country. At the centre of the design is a Celtic Cross, containing the Chi-Ro, or monogram of Christ. It is placed against the backdrop of the open landscape of Dartmoor. The four elements are represented; air is shown as a setting for two roundels at the top of the left and right hand lights which feature corn and grapes ? the Eucharist in its original form, fire surrounding the central cross, the landscape represents earth, and water flows beneath the whole design. Alpha and Omega flank the cross, with spring flowers arranged in roundels underneath them. Two legends referring to St Petroc are also portrayed. On the left is the fish which is said to have sustained St Petroc and mirraculously remained whole and fresh during seven years, coupled with the handbell which represents another of his attributes. On the right is the wolf guarding the Saint?s staff and his sheepskin coat. Friend Anne Vallance, said the new window had proved very popular with churchgoers. ?I think it is lovely, and it lets a lot more light into church,? she said. Anne thanked everyone who had worked hard to help the church attain its millennium window. The window was officially dedicated by the Rev Stephen Cook, at the service.
