Durham Cathedral, Palace Green, Durham, County Durham, 1942. A detailed view of the east arch in the galilee's central aisle, showing the junction of the east wall and chapel arcade. The cathedral was originally a Benedictine Priory, refounded in 1541 as a cathedral. The main body was built between 1093 and 1130, with alterations and additions made in the 13th and 15th centuries. The galilee is situated west of the west towers, and was built for Bishop le Puiset in 1189. It has four bays west-to-east and five aisles. The central aisle's east arch has four orders with carved zig-zags, whilst the arcades have round-headed arches with dog-tooth mouldings. Under the east arch is a painted triptych and altar. Behind is the main body of the cathedral.
