Canterbury Cathedral (4), Kent
Windows in the Ambulatory.
The ambulatory is home to some of the most interesting and accomplished stained glass in Canterbury Cathedral. Most of the glass is original, ranging in date from about 1180 to 1220, but there were significant restorations (and replacements) made in the 19th century.
Circling around the ambulatory are a total of eight windows depicting the Miracles of St. Thomas Becket two of which are shown here.

These tombs and monuments are in the South Aisle to the side of the Quire. The tomb on the right is of Edward the Black Prince. There are other numerous tombs and monuments in this area and in other parts of the cathedral.

This shows the not inconsiderable change in floor level from the aisle to the south of the quire looking down to the aisle past the South Transept into the South Aisle next to the Nave beyond.

A series of rather nice arches with typical Norman decoration in the roof between the crossing and the South Aisle in the Nave.

The South Aisle on the south side of the nave looking towards west end.
