The 'Bell Founders' Window'

The window is the gift of Richard Tunnoc, citizen, goldsmith and bell-founder who died 1330. He can be seen kneeling before St William of York with a bell on his satchel and offering a model of the window to the saint. Bell-making is portrayed in the neighbouring panels. Above St William is crossing the Ouse Bridge (also depicted in window s.XXXIV on the south side).

In the tracery lights are 3 Apostles including St Peter and St Andrew
