Four-light window with standing figures of (left to right) Dyfrig (Dubricius), Michael, George and Cadog (Cadoc). Dyfrig and Cadog hold elaborate crosiers and books, Michael and George both stand with swords over their defeated dragons. Both Welsh saints are mitred, with Dyfrig styled as bishop (eps Llandav) and Cadog as abbot (Abbas).

The figures are attributed to Kempe's designer John Carter by Adrian Barlow, contrasting with the west window using cartoons by Wyndham Hope Hughes.
