Description: Heraldic East Window, St Lawrence's Church, Mereworth, Kent. The church was built 1744 to 1746 by John Fane, 7th Earl of Westmorland, builder of the Palladian Mereworth Castle. It replaced the mediaeval church next to the castle when the castle was enlarged. The 2nd and 4th rows show arms of Knights of the Garter. (Source: C. R.
