There were the odd, unfinished towers of the cruciform cathedral quaint towers, topped with wood and pointed spirelets soaring into the sky above the gray colony of clustered roofs.
The capitals in some cases are carved, in others moulded only. Above each capital is a small carved boss. This, doubtless, was the stop to some member on the angles of the spirelets. Springing from the capitals are moulded and cusped arches, which form on either side the heads of the panelled divisions.
The four western buttresses had pinnacles with spirelets now destroyed. The western one was square, the other three octagonal. All these are earlier in date than the fifth one from the west, this last one being probably the same in date, as it is in detail, as those on the south side. The sixth one finishes plainly with a square top. It may once have had a pinnacle, but none now remains.
