The five-light East window in this church is by Caroline Townshend and Joan Howson. St Nectan. The Church of Saint Nectan is the parish church of Hartland in Devon and is sometimes referred to as the “Cathedral of North Devon”. It is located in the hamlet of Stoke, west of the town of Hartland. Townshend and Howson produced  six windows for the church, all of which highlight the history and national connection of the parish rather than the religious life of the community. One window, a three-light traceried window, is known as the “Gytha window.” Countess Gytha was a woman of some importance in Saxon England. She was married to Earl Godwin and they and their children held substantial power. She is credited with establishing a religious house at Stoke St Nectan (Nistenstok) and it is from this that the later Abbey grew. Gytha features in the centre light, holding her Abbey in her hands and in  the light to her left are the Arms of the Dynhams, who were the owners of the parish & Hundred, showing the “Garter” belt and the seal of John Dynham, 1st Baron Dynham. In the right hand light are the Arms of Hartland Abbey and below Gytha is the seal of Lord Dynham. The next Townshend and Howson window is known as the 'Armorial' window and illustrates the armorial insignia of the owners of the Manors within the parish of Hartland. The Abbot, Luttrell and Orchard arms are sequential as owners of Hartland Abbey from the Dissolution. The arms of Docton  of Docton, Hartland, are representing the Manor of Southole. There are no arms shown for the Waddon-Martyn family who were owners of Milford and Meddon as they were in dispute with the then owners of Hartland Manor and were therefore left off for political reasons. The next Townshend and Howson window is known as the “King Alfred Window”. Hartland was held by the Saxon Royal Family and is mentioned in King Alfred’s will. This is another three-light traceried window with Alfred in the centre light. In the lights on either side are illustrations of Alfred’s achievements  or events which are associated with him. We see the burning of the cakes, the candle clock, the Anglo Saxon Chronicle and the translation of Boethius. Another window is the “King William Window” which shows the Coronation of King William who became the owner of Hartland following the Conquest. In the centre light of the three-light traceried window is King William and in the left and right hand lights are depictions of the invasion force, the Domesday Book and King William’s Royal Seal. The “King Arthur Window” celebrates King Arthur and the Holy Grail. The Holy Grail is  shown as a chalice, there is a depiction of Sarras, the City of the Grail, the alleged finding of the cross at Glastonbury, the sword Excalibur, the Thorn of Glastonbury and some Cornish Choughs, the symbol of Cornwall. The image of Arthur is based on the statue of Emperor Maximillion at Innsbruck. The final Townshend and Howson window at St Nectan's is rather plain. A recovered piece of medieval glass from the east window was repaired and presented as a roundel. This has been incorporated as a central feature in the Mary Chapel window and Townshend and Howson then  added a further two roundels based on designs of the medieval period, then on display in a London Museum. Some other minor decoration is within the window including stars and crowns. A further Townshend & Howson window at Hartland exists within the Chapel of Ease off the Square in the town centre. This was commissioned in 1933 by a local schoolteacher Francis James 'Daddy' Wilton and Richard Pearse Chope acted as an intermediary over the chosen design. The design is framed around an image of St Augustine holding a scroll and stood by a fig tree and the figure of St  Francis. Below each figure are the arms of Hartland Abbey and that of Canterbury. Other symbolism is included within the design. The cost being agreed at £56 including fixing. St Oswald.
