Of modern design, the top section depicts St. Cuthbert with a staff blessing a woman kneeling at his feet; the middle section appears to be a horse with St. Cuthbert resting on the ground, with an angel's wing above. The bottom section has St. Cuthbert seated with three animals licking his feet. The inscription is at the base of the window, using italic upper and lower case letters, made by painting in a black background and leaving the letters clear
