Reading edition

“The English eastern crypts are Canterbury, Winchester, Gloucester, Rochester, Worcester;—all founded before 1085. After this they were discontinued, except as a continuation of former ones, as at Canterbury and Rochester. The Early English crypt of the Lady-chapel at Hereford is an exception.”—Willis, Architectural History of Canterbury Cathedral, p. 71, note.
