List of works by Trena Cox

Trena Mary Cox (1895–1977) was an English stained glass artist. She was born in London, and set up her first studio in Birkenhead, Merseyside in 1916. In 1923 she moved to Chester, Cheshire, where she spent the remainder of her career. Most of her works are in buildings in the northwest of England.[1] She was a fellow of the British Society of Master Glass Painters.[2] The authors of the Buildings of England series comment that "her windows are usually small, her figures modest, often with small-scale detail in the quarries" (small pieces of square or diamond-shaped glass set diagonally).[3]
