An analysis of Gothic architecture Illustrated by a series of upwards of seven hundred examples of doorways, windows, mouldings, roofs, arches, crosses, panels, buttresses, seats, screens, etc., and accompanied with remarks on the several details of an ecclesiastical edifice . St Albans Abbey SoiTH FLEET ChURCH, KkNT. riched, was for a long time continued; as in the beautiful specimens from the Churchesat Northfleet and Roydon, figured in Plate 5, of Section I. Decorated. In other two-light windows in which the tracery-bars diverge from the mullion,describing curves similar to those of the window-arch, the heads ofthe two lancets thus formed are filled with various traceiy (SectionI. Decorated, Plate 3). Others, again, are of a character so verypeculiar, as to form an absolutely distinct class from any we haveyet noticed. They occur in the purest period of the Decorated era,and are characterised by a remarkable angularity and abruptness of outline : such arethe windows in the Chancels of Chartham Church, Kent (Section I.
