Other comments
Before he received the commission for the Benedicite windows Davis had already made a single light, Nativity window (1903) and windows for the porch and the organ chamber (1910). Shortly after completing his work at St Colmon, Davis worked on his most famous commission, the six magnificent choir windows at Dunblane Cathedral. A war memorial window, also made by Powells, was added in 1919-20.
Davis’s window is complimented on the north wall by a window on the theme of The Good Shepherd by Douglas Strachan c.1925.
