Fig. 1024.—Trinity College Church. Choir, from Parapet of South Transept.
Fig. [1025] shows a view from the parapet of the choir looking south across the south transept. We here see the construction of the parapet and its corbel course, and an example of one of the gargoyles carved in the form of an animal. The monkey was a favourite subject of the carvers in this church, and it as well as other figures were used in great profusion. The cape house and angle pinnacle are also again visible.
Fig. 1025.—Trinity College Church. Looking South from Parapet of Choir.
To the right is the roof of the south transept, terminated with a foliated cross. A small ridge ornament of stone may also be observed on the top of the stone ridge of the roof.
In Fig. [1022] a small credence table or piscina is visible, which is illustrated on a larger scale in Fig. [1026]. Fig. [1027] is a piscina which was probably in the choir. The carving has apparently been of a good style, but late. Fig. [1022] further shows that there was a doorway at the east end of the north aisle, which appears to have nearly blocked up the traceried window, the head of which is visible above. The Plan shows that there was a similar doorway at the east end of the south aisle.
