Usage examples of arches.

Between the groups of aisle windows are blind arches narrower than the windows themselves.

The aisle fronts have upper storeys ornamented with blind arches and an upper row of small lancet windows.

The square ends of both choir and aisles are decorated with arches with crocketed gables above them.

The large triforium, small clerestory, and moderate-sized main arches give way to a large clerestory, large main arches, and practically non-existent triforium.

It consists of a single arch, divided into two smaller cusped arches by a central pillar with a circular opening above it, glazed and filled with six divisions of cusped tracery.

The slender shafts supporting the arches are well grouped and contrasted.

Thus the ridges of the two roofs are practically level, while the battlement of the transept is only on a level with the point at which the arches of the clerestory in the nave spring.

The absence of buttresses and the continuous row of arches cause a remarkable freedom from vertical lines in the exterior of the transepts, which is also characteristic of the interior.

The buttresses are also ornamented with blind arches, and appear never to have been finished, as they are truncated in an unusual way where one would expect pinnacles.

Thus there is nothing to mark the interior division of the main arches, clerestory, and triforium.

The tops of the divisions are ornamented with cusped arches of open stonework.

The spaces between the arches of the middle circle are pierced with trefoil holes, those between the outer arches are pierced and filled with glass.

On either side of the rose window are small lancet windows with smaller blind arches on each side of them.

An arcading with shafts and cusped arches runs along the base of the front, not quite reaching the exterior buttresses.

Above this porch are three blind arches surrounded with heavy gables, the middle and largest of which runs up to the lancet windows above it.
