18 Shoe Window

The Shoe Window by David Gleeson commemorates the footwear trade of Stafford and the surrounding area. The border at the top of the righthand main panel carries the names of manufacturers associated with the town.

Tools, patterns and shoe-makers through the ages adorn the centre of the window.

A shoe-lace in the shape of the River Sow runs across the bottom of the window bearing the words: "May your feet be shod with the Gospel of peace."

The window was dedicated by the Right Reverend Gordon Mursell (Bishop of Stafford) in the presence of Her Majesty The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh on 31st March 2006.
