Church of St Thomas the Martyr, Winchelsea: detail of niche to one side of the Alard Monument
RIBA162890
NOTES: This was or was planned as a cruciform church, but the nave was either never finished or was burned by the French in the 14th century. The chancel with aisles and the arches and ruins of the transepts remain. Except for the 15th century west porch, what remains though, is still largely 14th century.
