I would like to use this topic as a means of sharing any good literary sources on the Art of Edward Burne Jones and his circle. If anyone can add significantly to this list they would be warmly welcomed to do so.
The most important and comprehensive work on the stained glass is the following two volume tome
"The Stained Glass Of William Morris And His Circle"
By A. Charles Sewter (1960s - exact date to follow)
This is rather rare and expensive, but remains the only complete gazeteer of Morris & Co's tremendous output of stained glass. Volume one consists of a full historical and stylistic analysis, whilst volume two gives the complete list of works and where to find them.
A small but gorgeously illustrated 30pg book was published in 1998;-
"Edward Burne Jones; Stained Glass in Birmingham Churches" By William waters & Alistair Carew-Cox. It includes the spectacular glass of the Cathedral, together with St Martin's in the Bullring and St Mary's, Acock's Green.
A glossy, beautifully illustrated 47pg exhibition catalogue has been published 2008 to coincide with the sale of the late Morris & Co windows from the Chapel of Cheadle Royal Hospital (Mancheser)

Some of Burne Jones/Morris Glass that can be seen in UK, Gordon points out that this is by no means an exhaustive list. In fact I found a very nice early Morris window in Warwick the other day.
Some years ago I came across this very helpful list from The William Morris Gallery in Walthamstow, this is the basis for the current list. It is by no means complete, but it does list the best places to discover Morris and Co Glass in the UK. The art of stained glass originated in France early in the 12th century. Medieval glass is characterised by great richness, deriving mainly from the use of relatively small pieces of coloured glass (pot metal). Later, some think, the art degenerated - larger pieces of glass were used and treated as a form of transparent easel painting.
The first half of the 19th century saw a return to medieval ideals; the initiator of the Gothic Revival, the architect A.W.N.Pugin, was in part responsible as was Charles Winston, a lawyer whose book on medieval glass was published in 1847. Winston urged that wherever possible glass should not be painted but that pot metal should be used and that the leads should form part of the design. He was an adviser to Powell's, the glass manufacturers who had made windows to designs by Rossetti and Burne-jones some years before the founding of the Morris firm in 1861.
The glass made by the firm until well into the present century was a product of the Gothic Revival. Generally speaking only the early work, between 1861 and 1874, has the inventiveness of medieval glass. During this period designs were made by Morris, Burne-jones, Rossetti, Madox Brown and others, often in collaboration with one another; the colouring was often left to Morris and the overall arrangement to Webb. After the reorganisation of the firm under Morris's direction in 1875, Burne-jones was responsible for the glass, and it tended to become more pictorial and stereotyped. From his death in 1898 many of his designs were repeated under J.H.Dearie, by then the firm's principal designer.
Morris and Company executed windows for over 400 buildings both in Britain and abroad. Some of the more important commissions are listed here. Artists are indicated by the following initials: Please add to this list if you know of other good examples worth seeing.

OXFORDSHIRE My own county I'd cite the following. Harris Manchester College Chapel, Oxford
The chapel which dates from 1893 by Thomas Worthington , some of the best and most complete series of Burne Jones/ Morris and Company glass to be found anywhere. Morris himself designed Joseph and Mary Magdalene. Pevsner described the chapel’s windows as “pure joy” the colours and forms are Burne Jones at his best. A detailed account of all the windows is available from a booklet on sale in the college office. The chapel is used by Unitarians as the college was affiliated to the General assembly of Unitarian and Free Christian Churches.
Edward Burne Jones work is seen here translated into glass by Morris and Company. His elongated romantic medieval inspired figures can be seen in many churches throughout Britain. There are excellent examples in Oxfordshire, of note are those at Buscot (Parish Church), Oxford Cathedral, Eaton Hastings (St Christopher) and Bloxham. The Exeter College chapel houses a premier tapestry work of art by Burne Jones "The Star of Bethlehem" also titled "The Adoration of the Magi" this closely follows a large tempera work of an earlier date (Birmingham City art Galleries) it was woven by Morris and Company 1890

Sewter Vol I is 1974, vol II is 1975.
Important sources are:
Memorials of Edward Burne-Jones by G[eorgiana] B[urne- J[ones], 2 vols, Macmillan & co, 1904 and reprints. Facsimile edn 1993.
Harrison, Martin & Waters, Bill. Burne Jones, Barrie & Jenkins, 2nd ed., 1989. Bibliography.
Edward Burne-Jones: Victorian Artist-Dreamer. New York, 1998. [Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Met Museum; at Birmingham City Art Gallery and at the Musée D'Orsay in Paris.Excellent Bibliography.
Many Burne-Jones cartoons are in the Birmingham City Art Gallery and are listed in the Catalogue of Drawings and its supplements.
Some other Burne-Jones cartoons are in the William Morris Gallery at Walthamstow, listed in the Catalogue, 2nd ed, 1969. [Sadly the London Borough of Waltham forest have got rid of the curatorial expertise, notably Peter Cormack despite an outcry to the contrary from the stained glass world].
The Catalogue in Sewter Vol II lists designs and cartoons and their locations where known.

NEW: I have just come across a link to the text of the1969 catalogue of the William Morris Gallery at Walthamstow. In the light of the changes reported by Gordon above, I don't know if all the works included are still at the gallery, or whether these can be seen on demand.
www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/nra/onlinelists/GB0365%20MORR...
EXISTING:
From the wonderfully informative catalogue of the Cheadle Royal Exhibition of Stained glass, which is available to download as a pdf at:
www.haslamandwhiteway.com/pdf/stainedglass.pdf
“The definitive account of Morris & Company’s stained glass is A. C. Sewter’s The Stained Glass of William Morris and his Circle, published in two volumes by Yale University Press, New Haven
and London, in 1974 and 1975.
Sewter’s work has been amplified and, in a few cases corrected by Martin Harrison, author of Victorian Stained Glass (1980), and by the late Donald Green, whose research archive is now at the National Monuments Record (English Heritage) at Swindon.
The history of Burne-Jones’s cartoons for stained glass is substantially documented in Douglas E. Schoenherr’s ‘The “Cartoon Book” and Morris & Company’s sale of Burne-Jones’s cartoons in 1901-1904’ in The Journal of Stained Glass, Volume XXIX (2005).”
I believe that the Exhibition book itself (no doubt beautiful, but I have never seen it) can sometimes be found in the lists of online collectable and second-hand book suppliers.
I haven’t followed up the other references – has anyone else?
I will post a list of other references I have come across later.
Dajavous.
PS - l have a list of references I used for a display board at Coddington History Group Exhibition. It Is a Word document, and is a few pages long. Can I upload it as it is - ie by attaching it somehow, or do I have to copy and paste it in. (As an attachment people could ignore it and skip past it to the next post without having to scroll forever.)

I came across this e-book pamphlet, 13 pages long which can be downloaded or saved page by page (free):
Sir Edward Burne-Jones - A record and review by Malcolm Bell 1892.
www.ebooksread.com/authors-eng/malcolm-bell/sir-edward-bu...
Obviously in scholarship will not be up to date and there are NO PICTURES, but Appendix III contains a list of stained glass cartoons - download/save pages 11-13. (Generally first use of cartoons, not repeat uses.)
Although I'm sure it is no where near as useful as Sewter at least it isreadily available.
Another source of this found, and pasted in here:

NOTE. In many of these windows cartoons previously used have
been reproduced together with the new designs. Thus to the window
at Brampton, " Christ blessing little Children," designed in 1888, were
added, "Elizabeth and St. John the Baptist," "Salome with St James and
St. John," " St. Timothy and Eunice " and the " Holy Family" designed
APPENDIX III 139
in 1876, and to the "Seraphs" at Gateacre designed in 1882 were added
"St. Martin," " Charity," " Justice," " St. George," and the "Acts of
Mercy," which had already been used elsewhere. The above list gives
only the date of the first use of the designs, without reference to any
subsequent reproductions.

A friend told me that there is a new biography / study of Burne-Jones due out soon:
www.oxfordtoday.ox.ac.uk/page.aspx?pid=1133
Fiona MacCarthy’s new biography The Last Pre-Raphaelite: Edward Burne-Jones and the Victorian Imagination will be published by Faber and Faber on 8 September.
The information given in the review certainly chimes with what I've read in biographies by Judith Flanders, Penelope Fitzgerald and Josceline Dimbelby. I really love his art but it doesn't sound like he was altogether an easy man to live with.
No excuses now - in preparation for September I shall have to attempt a cover-to-cover assault on Ms MacCarthy's biography of Morris.
PS - many of you will have gathered that I have access to the reference Sewter now - so if you desperately need information about that stained glass window I can look it up for you.
Burne-Jones at the V&A:

Another old reference book about Burne-Jones has turned up as a free online resource. Quercus-woodelf has posted a lovely photo of his copy of the book:
Sir Edward Burne-Jones Bart - an Illustrated Record and Review, by Bell, published 1892 and reprinted up to 1910. The full text, but no illustrations can be found on this link:
