Crossing

Amesbury, Wiltshire, UK

"The four pillars supporting the solid central tower are Early English, embellished by some Perpendicular work.

"In common with many medieval cruciform churches the Nave and the Quire are not in a straight line,
but inclined to the north, to represent the inclination of the head of Christ on the cross."
