At the Forefront of European Architecture?

A review of West Country cathedrals in the Decorated period

Exeter Cathedral is delighted to be hosting this important event bringing together eminent speakers who will look at the extraordinary developments in architecture which took place in the West Country during the early 14th century. This is a joint venture between the Friends of Exeter Cathedral and the Devon fund raising committee of the Art Fund who are grateful to Bearnes Hampton & Littlewood for their generous support for this meeting.

The West of England has some of the finest and most innovative cathedral architecture in Europe. This day aims to provide a new insight into the great cathedrals at Exeter, Bristol, Wells and Salisbury. The development of the Decorated style during major construction programmes at these locations in the early 14th century was in some regards at the forefront of European design.

This event is suitable for anyone with an interest in these cathedrals or with a general interest in Gothic architecture.
