In the War Memorial (South) Window the figures of St George and Salvador Mundi were designed by Henry Dearle for William Morris & Co.
The North window features this figure of St Thomas which first appeared in 1874 in Calcutta Cathedral where it faces left. Here it faces right.
The figure of St Hilda was originally used at Paisley Abbey in 1876 to represent Salome. Only in Hyde has it been modified by the addition of a pastoral staff.
A photograph of one of the "plainer" windows can be seen on Hyde Daily Photo.
