Trena Cox (1895-1980) was a stained glass artist who lived and worked in Chester throughout a career lasting almost fifty years. Her vibrant windows can be found across the northwest and North Wales, with a small number at locations further afield, including Walsingham.   

This illustrated talk, enjoyed by 134 members, explored Trena Cox’s depictions of the people and places of Chester in her stained glass installed at locations around the city, including Chester Cathedral, Chester Castle and local churches.
