Storm Glazing of Christ Church, Strabane

October 2, 2017 by Joe Coyle

 

Alpha Stained Glass was contracted by J.A. GAMBLE & CO LTD and Caroline Dickson Architects to take on the task of installing a new storm glazing system at the historic Christ Church, Bowling green, Strabane.

A range of different storm glazing systems had been in use at Christ Church. We replaced these with our own removable, ventilated system throughout. Once the existing storm glazing was removed, we resealed all of the stained glass before cleaning and polishing the lead work. 

All glazing was cut, drilled and polished in-house, then toughened and installed on site using our bespoke bronze fixings. Which allow the glazing to be removed if any maintenance to stained glass or stone is required. 

We would like to thank the Rev. Mark Lennox, J.A Gamble and Caroline Dickson Architects for inviting us to take part in this project and wish the Church well in the continued restoration of this historic building.

This Stained glass window featuring St Mother Teresa was commissioned by Fr Farren of St Eugene's Cathedral in January 2017.

It is now the centrepiece of the new day chapel, which has been dedicated to the life of Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who was canonized in September 2016. 

This set of three is complimented by two smaller stained glass windows which sit either side of the new sandstone alter. 

More images of the windows can be found in our gallery here.
