About this piece
back to topAn early 20th century antique English stained glass window detailed with the Shoreham-by-Sea Coat of Arms. This stained glass window is one of a series of panels we are selling from towns and cities on the south coast of the British Isles.
The Shoreham Coat of Arms depicts a single blue rampant lion to the left side of a shield and three golden passant guardant lions to the right. This English coastal town has a long history, the town of Old Shoreham dating back to pre-Roman times. Towards the end of the 11th century, Norman conquerors occupied the town and established New Shoreham.
Situated on the south coast of England, Shoreham has a rich maritime heritage. This is reflected in two individual panes of this stunning window, each hand-painted with an old English sailing ship.
