The clearstory has gone, but doubtless was a continuation of the 

 fourteenth-century remodelling of the northernmost bay. 



Externally the free bays had in the first stage window arches of 

 two members, of which the outer is carried by a small attached 

 jamb shaft, and beneath is a continuous wall arcade of interlacing 

 arches. The second stage has a similar window arch, but the 

 mouldings are bolder and the outer member is carried by a detached 

 column. Under these windows is a billeted string-course, and 

 above is a string-course ornamented with beads. None of the 

 windows has ever been filled with tracery, but all retain their 

 original inner members. 



At the south-west angle is a bold square turret which contained 

 a vice starting from the triforium level, of which the lower steps 

 remain. Across the south side of this turret is the groove of a 

 steep-pitched roof running southward, but what was its purpose it 

 is difficult to say ; there was no connexion between the church and 

 this building. 



In the middle of the south wall was another bold turret, in 

 which was a vice starting from the ground and entered by a door- 

 way in the second wall arch from the west. 



Outside this turret was found a wall running southward, which 

 was possibly the wall of the little old church seen by Leland. 



On the east side of the middle bay was found a patch of the 

 tile paving, but all the foundations had been grubbed up. 



The north transept was presumably the same as the south. Of 

 it remain the southern and part of the next bay of the west wall, 

 and a fragment of the east wall attached to the north pier of the 

 crossing. 



What remains of the west wall is precisely similar to the cor- 

 responding part of the south transept. The southern bay of the 

 triforium is blocked up for abutment to the tower ; the aisle arch 

 was built up after the Suppression, and has in it a small square- 

 headed doorway with a three-light square window over it. 



The fragment of the east wall shows a respond of the aisle arch 

 similar to those of the nave. The triforium is of two members, 

 like the presbytery, with bold detached jamb shafts and cushion
