In small compass there are a stone altar with five crosses, an aumbry beneath the altar, and the tomb with recumbent effigy of the founder. A priest would have just sufficient room to move about in the performance of his service. Part of Archbishop Bowet's tomb in York Minster was a chantry chapel.
Bowet's monument also was erected there in 1415, while he was still alive. A new high altar was projected in 1418, and the new crypt was fitted with iron work and paved in the same year.
