18. By the 1920’s many of the stained glass companies that
had been a major force in the previous 100 years had
ceased to exist, although James Powell & Sons were
still producing windows along with a few other firms
mainly involved in restoration.
Goddard & Gibbs produced windows in the latter part
of 20th century but they no longer are trading.
Individual craft studios continue to produce a few
windows to commission.
