Lamb designed most of the fittings of his churches, and some of the glass: the window in the north transept of St Jude’s is almost certainly his.  This is a detail from a window in the crossing at Healey; as at St Jude’s he put the emblems of the four evangelists in the corners.

Lamb was controversial in his own time, and very unfashionable for the first half of the twentieth century – it is lucky that nearly all his churches survive.  In the last forty years, he has been recognised as one of the most original Victorian architects.   He was concerned that his buildings should be colourful, with wall patterns, and bright tiles underfoot, and his stained glass has brilliant blues and greens which are unusual for the period.  It is noticeable when you visit them that they are all loved and appreciated by their congregations and have not been altered in ways which spoil their atmosphere.
