St. Paul's Presbyterian Church has memorial windows dedicated to the men from their congregation who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars.
On the east wall is the window in memory of the seven men who died in the Second World War. The window was created in 1965 by Robert McCausland Limited. St. Michael - the brilliant colouring of his raiment, this youthful celestial warrior clad in coat of mail, sworded and shielded, stands triumphant, symbolic of victory over evil. St. Michael, as Captain of the heavenly hosts, is generally accepted as the protector of Airmen.
On the west wall is the window in memory of the 13 men who died in the First World War.
