North Aisle : The Wild Rose tapestry

Adjacent to the Harewell window is the Wild Rose Hanging tapestry, designed and worked by ladies, and one man, from the village as part of the Millennium celebration to commemorate the 1000 years signing of the Royal Charter to the village of Harwell 985-1985.

A pageant was performed highlighting various stages throughout the 1000 years. Rows of straw bales were provided for the capacity audiences seated on the Rectory lawn. Whilst the Sanctuary was roped off, the interior of the church became a vast changing room to accommodate the 250 members of the parish who took part.
