What drew me to this stained-glass in Brecon Cathedral was the Stafford Knot in it of course - you can see the knot on this man's shoulder.
He is Edward Stafford, the third Duke of Buckingham.
(The first duke had been born at Stafford Castle and was also the Earl of Stafford. He was the one who had first adopted the knot for the family's badge/livery.)

Poor Edward was executed in 1521 after annoying Henry VIII for something or other.
Henry got annoyed by a whole lot of people. To the point where one would think that getting rid of Henry would solve a lot of problems.
