Roof

Textual Description
'The roof is still of the hammerbeam variety. But the beams and braces, instead of displaying Perp tracery, now show only tiers of very thin balusters, a clear indication of the changing style. The prettiest contribution of the new taste is the louvre or lantern, a hexagonal, three-stepped, glazed structure, slender and elegant.'
