go YORK: WITH A FEW NOTES ON BEVERLEY. 
Evangelists, which are remarkable, and very boldly carved in 
relief. 
St. Mary’s Church, Beverley, is quite sufficient in itself to 
detain the traveller in this town. It is very rare to find a town 
boasting two such magnificent fabrics. As is generally the case, 
you may find here all kinds of Gothic architecture, from Norman 
to Perpendicular, but it is all in such beautiful taste and symmetry 
that admiration hardly expresses one’s feelings. The arcading of 
the Nave is most refined, and the bases of the columns being 
raised well above the benches does away with that appearance of 
having ‘‘ dropped in” so prevalent in most churches. 
I must here call your attention to a peculiarity in the groining 
of the eastern portion of the north aisle. ‘The mouldings of the 
ribs on the north side of this aisle continue unbroken down the 
pier without capital or base, and diverge equally towards the roof, 
but on the opposite side they all enter into rings without appear-

arrangement that is not only extremely curious, but unusual
