 aisles of three bays each, supported in the centre by one large and 

 one small pier. The large pier with a respond against each side 

 wall carries two boldly-chamfered arches of two members trans- 

 versely across the apartment to support the east wall of the dorter 

 above. The two eastern severies, which project beyond the line of 

 the range, each contained a chapel, originally divided from each 

 other by a narrow wall. This wall was afterwards partially re- 

 moved and an interment made on its line, the coffin of which still 

 remains in place. It was probably covered by an altar- tomb with 

 an arch over to carry the remaining part of the division wall, 1

1 In the blocking of the chapter-house arches were some fragments of a 

 monument of this description, of fourteenth century date, and as the wall in 

 which they must have stood, was exactly the same thickness (viz., 14 inches) as 

 the division wall of these chapels, it is reasonable to suppose the fragments 

 belonged to this monument.
