To form an important part of a public display and also as a wider educational package Martin was asked by Christchurch Borough Council to choose and replicate one of the many figures from the well known and loved Jesse Window in the Great Hall at Highcliffe Castle. This involed hand painting the stained glass figure in various stages of completion in order to show the public just how the many individual steps and processes come together to finally make a medieval style painted stained glass window. The finished exhibition panel with interim stained glass elements along with a step by step guide are now on permanent display in the Great Hall, Highcliffe Castle, Highcliffe-on-sea, Dorset.
