The Chantry Chapel of John Oxenbridge in St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle

In many ancient churches the establishment of chantries and chantry chapels provides a fascinating appendix to the archaeology and history of the building. This paper is a short study of a chantry founded in St George's Chapel, Windsor not long before the Henrician and Edwardian reforms which were to undermine the theological principles upon which such establishments were erected. It refers to the life and the achievements of the founder and seeks to highlight, through the examination of architectural and heraldic evidence the difficulties of tracing the history of the building and decoration of the chantry chapel for which the Foundation Deed and the will of the founder are lost.
