Note 5 — THE CATHEDRAL OF LINCOLN. THOMAS FROGNALL DIBDIN.
Reading edition
Remigius was a monk of Fescamp in Normandy, and brought over here by William the Conqueror. He was worthy of all promotion. Brompton tells us that he began to build the Cathedral in 1088, and finished it in 1092, when it was consecrated; but the founder died two days before its consecration.
