St Peter, Brighton, Sussex -19th May 2006

I have high resolution versions of all these images, please contact me if you are interested in seeing them. As some of the windows in this church are huge, the detail is hard to see on those shown here. I'm afraid I forgot to note the locations of the windows in the church, so if a parishioner reads this and is able to provide the information, I'll add it.
