Saint Mellitus The first bishop of the
East Saxons in 604.
At the bottom of the centre light is a scene showing the
conversion of King Sebert of the East Saxons.
St. Mellitus became Archbishop of Canterbury. The arms of
the Province of Canterbury are at the top of the centre
light. At the top of the left hand light are the arms of
the Diocese of London, and on the right those of the
Diocese of Chelmsford.
Scenes in the outer lights are: the building of the Saxon
church, the building of the pre-Conquest nave, the
building of the tower, Edward IV granting the Charter to
the Jesus Guild. Small medallions show the old school at
the foot of Prittlewell hill and the later school next to
the church.
