Description: Stained glass east window, Holy Trinity Church, Goodramgate, York, showing arms of George Neville (c. 1432 – 8 June 1476), Archbishop of York and Chancellor of England, was the youngest son of Richard Neville, 5th Earl of Salisbury, and Alice Montagu. He was the brother of Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick, the "Kingmaker". The arms are those of the See of York ("ancient") (similar to the arms of the See of Canterbury), impaling Neville. The same arms appear in British Library, MS Harl.3346 ff.4v-5, Collectio Sententiarum Aurearum Greek moral sayings translated into Latin by George Hermonymos, c.1475, dedicated to George Neville , and the crossed keys above the shield in that image may be a reference to the arms of York, the crossed keys being the feature of the "modern" arms of the See of York adopted during the tenure of Cardinal Wolsey. Latin inscription below on a scroll: a(rme)s Georgii Nevell ("Arms of George Neville").
