St. Mary's Church, Rye.
The west window of St. Mary's Church was donated by the 'Mapp & Lucia' author E. F. Benson and dedicated to his parents, Archbishop and Mrs. Benson. E. F. Benson himself is kneeling in his mayoral robes in the bottom right corner. Although not very old it is a very beautiful window.
