The Pricke of Conscience or Fifteen Signs of Doom Window is the most eastern window in the north wall of the north chapel. It dates from around 1410. The 18 panels in the window's three lights show images of the signs of doom which medieval theologians believed would precede the Last Judgement, above groups of kneeling figures at the base of each window. The scenes are based on the fourteenth century poem titled 'The Pricke of Conscience', while the figures are donors. The window is considered to be "one of the most interesting windows in England", and, aside from York Minster, All Saints' Church contains "the finest collection of medieval glass in York".
