Storer, James. History and antiquities of the cathedral churches of Great Britain. Vol. II. London: Rivingtons; Murray; Hatchard; Clarke; Taylor; and Sherwood, Neely, and Jones. 1816. p. l.The front of the spacious north porch is richly adorned with purfled pinnacles, and other ornaments peculiar to the English style of design. Rising like a ponderous monument intended to proclaim the remote antiquity at which the foundation of the cathedral took place, the northern tower, uninjured by the vicissitudes of many centuries, imparts solemnity to the simple beauties of this front.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
