Description
This is the far south aisle of Salisbury Cathedral looking towards the west front door.
This section is the south quire aisle and in the distance is the south nave aisle.
Salisbury Cathedral is unusual for its tall and narrow central nave and quire, and has visual accentuation due to the use of light grey Chilmark stone for the walls and dark polished Purbeck marble for the columns. It has three levels: a tall pointed arcade, an open gallery and a small clerestory. Lined up between the pillars are notable tombs such as that of William Longespse, half brother of King John and the illegitimate son of Henry II, who was the first person to be buried in the cathedral.
