Note 61 — PART I.

“Caput, the ‘head’ of the church, was exclusively applied to the altar end thereof. Frons, the ‘front,’ however, can be shewn by many examples to have been employed for either end of the building.”—Willis’s Architectural History of Canterbury, p. 45, note. There can be no doubt, as Professor Willis himself pointed out at Worcester, that in this instance the east end, or front, is intended.
