Abstract: |
As part of ongoing maintenance work to the fabric of Glasgow Cathedral a Standing Building Survey of the Chapter House of the Cathedral took place in December 2006 and January 2007. The recent repairs to this part of the Cathedral were identified and recorded as were historic repairs from the 19th century. The Chapter House was originally constructed during the mid-13th century but was partially demolished and rebuilt in the early-15th century. Evidence for the rebuild can be traced in the external stonework and this was recorded during the survey. Also noted were the early-17th century gables and the 19th-century rebuild of the parapet. A significant amount of religious graffiti of unknown date has been carved into the buttresses and bays of the Chapter House. This was recorded and drawn to scale during the survey. |
