Summary

• The tribune gallery has a shallow pointed super-arch containing two arches each of which contain either trefoiled or cinquefoiled arches. Within the super-arch tympanum there is either a sunken quatrefoil or octofoil. In the inner arch tympana are pierced quatrefoils. The columns have Purbeck marble shafts and molded capitals varying from single to multiple clustered. The corbels in the super-arch spandrels support short responds from which the vaulting ribs arise.
