St Thomas (Anglican) Church
St. Thomas (Anglican) Church, Huron St., Toronto, Ontario. The octagonal Baptistry (1917) houses a central baptismal font, and also serves as a World War One memorial for the war dead of this parish. The room includes stained glass windows by the Bromsgrove Guild. These show images of medieval knights, St. Michael the Archangel and St. George, and a wounded soldier in a circa 1914-1918 military uniform standing among red poppies. Individually inscribed wooden war memorial panels line the walls. Each panel includes the name of a war casualty in gilt lettering with rank, unit and date of death. -
