LOW SIDE WINDOWS. 319 At Whit well, Rutland- sliire, the low side window is of two lights trefoiled, with a quatrefoil in the head, and is set in a recess close to the south-west angle of the chancel, with a bold hood-mould over it, terminated by the corbel- heads usual in this style. For this remarkable exam- ple we are indebted to the note-book of the late Rev. H. D. G. Baker, of Stam- ford, wdiose loss will long be felt by his friends, and by all archaeologists who had an opportunity of knowing the value of his accurate and careful obser- vation. At Garsington, Oxford- shire, a plain window of two lights, situated on the south side of the chancel, nearest the west end, has the lights continued down below the level of the other windows, with a transom in place of the sill, and the two square openings thus formed have evidently been used as low side windows. The iron-work in them ap- pears to have been original, but they do not' appear to have been originally glazed. The window opposite to this on the north side has ' ;;;:>^" also low side openings g under it of the same cha- racter, and also had original iron bars. Whitwell. Rutlandshii-a .ill W^
