Saint Andrew, Saint Peter, Saint James, by the firm of Lavers & Barraud. Installed in All Saints Church, Kingston-upon-Thames, Surrey, in about 1860, according to the Church Guide (see Eberhard). The designer is unknown; but the palette and motifs (especially in the tracery lights) suggest that it might well have been Nathaniel Westlake, who was designing for the firm by now. The saints all have their conventional attributes: St Andrew with his transverse cross, St Peter with his keys, and St James with his heavy club — the instrument of his cruel martyrdom, as the cross was in the case of St Andrew.
