Did the Late Twelfth-Century Nave of St Davids Cathedral Have Stone Vaults?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 April 2011
Abstract
It has been suggested that the nave of St Davids Cathedral was planned for aisle and high vaults but that the vaults were not built. Evidence is here presented that the vaults were indeed constructed. The high vault would have been of tufa, according to a well-established tradition in the West Country. The narrow springers of the aisle vaults are allied to near-contemporary vaults at Dore Abbey and Llanthony Priory.
