Summary

• The clerestory has stepped triple lancet windows with an inner row of arches with a central lancet and outer partial cinquefoiled arches. The inner arches arise from detached Purbeck marble shafts with Purbeck annulets and stiff-leaf capitals. Between the shafts are long rows of dogtooth. The cusps of the partial cinquefoiled arches have projecting stiff-leaf decoration.
