Loucester in the chapel of St. Andrew. Mr. Blunt has thrown out the sugges- tion as a possible ideal, but the simi)licity of the present chapel is far preferable. Immediately above it is a large vaulted room, similar in shape, but less lofty, open to the transept. Its roof shows traces of having been at one time elaborately painted with frescoes, and the room formerly communicated with the original Norman triforium of the choir. This room has at various times had absurd names given to it, perha...ps the most absurd being that of the Nun's Prison. As Mr. Blunt in " Tewkesbury and its Associations " . Says, there are many people who caiuiot hear about monks without immediately thinking of nuns. It would seem that the room communicatLxl with the dorter or d(jrmitory, and was designed for invalid monks, who from it might hear mass sung in the church without going down- stairs. In the south-east corner of the transept a staircase gives access to this chamber, and communicates with the triforium of the transept, the clerestory of the choir, the vaulting of the ambulatory as well as that of the tower.
