A major benefactor of the church was William Bruges , first Garter King of Arms who is buried in the church. St George's claims to be the original church of the Order of the Garter. Originally the chancel contained a series of seven windows containing portraits of the Knights of the Garter, but little remains apart from a collection of garter panes in the north chancel window and a few fragments in the south window including the centre panes of St Catherine and St Anne. The roof of the chancel with decorative angels was also the gift of Bruges. The central angels on each side carry on their shields the "Signs of the Passion", the pierced heart and wounded hands and feet of Christ.
There are numerous memorial tablets adorning the inside of the church including one commemorating Tobie Norris after whom a Stamford pub is named and Blanche, Lady Wake . In the south aisle there is a Hugh Arnold stained glass window to the memory of architect John Charles Traylen.
