Porch l Nave l Lady Chapel l Quire and High Altar l Treasury

As you entered through the porch, did you notice the Spanish influence in the architecture above the doorways?

It is a modern reminder that Anselm, Abbot from 1121 until 1148, was prevented by his duties from making a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela in Spain . Instead he builds the first church within the Abby precincts dedicated to St James.
