Summary

• At the aisle level, there are a series of lancet windows with adjacent blind arches. A pair of narrow shafts with stiff-leaf capitals support all of the arches. At the top of the aisle is a frieze of giant stiff-leaf foliage. There are four buttresses with small gables between the windows. In the transept clerestory there is an arcade with three lancet windows and blind arch on each side. The arch moldings have large dogtooth ornamentation.
