St Nicholas's Church window, Witham

In 1850, Sir George Gilbert Scott designed a window in Henry Greeen Mortimer's memory for his home church at Witham. Mortimer had been Scott’s Clerk of Works at St Nicholas, Hamburg, which Scott was then working on. He had been killed in a fall from the scaffolding of that building in 1849. The window was made by Wailes and positioned in the west side of the church.
