| As there are a considerable number of
monuments in the cathedral, I have attempted to indicate their
location. The general part of the cathedral is indicated in the
blue band above the photographs. I have begun at the east and
numbered the bays in the choir and nave starting from the east.
In the transepts I have listed them from the crossing bgining
along the west wall. In each principal section the
photographs are arranged to fit, rather than in logical order! |
