| Title | 3 - Lincoln Cathedral Concordance of Window Numbers |
| Description | The following concordance brings together four window-numbering systems that have been adopted at various times for Lincoln Cathedral. The first two systems are historical and have been superseded by the most recent version of the CVMA system and the current Lincoln Cathedral workshop system. The first of the two historical systems, akin to the CVMA system, was current in the 1970s, and was used to identify only windows containing painted glass. The second was that adopted by Nigel Morgan in his CVMA (GB) volume on Lincoln Cathedral ('The Medieval Painted Glass of Lincoln Cathedral', CVMA (GB), Occasional Paper III, London, 1983). The CVMA system has been revised recently in order to accommodate all the windows in the cathedral visible from the interior. The chantry chapels are treated as separate units, and suffixes have been introduced to identify parts of the building not covered by a traditional application of the CVMA system (e.g., CH for the chapter house). The three lancets above the clerestory windows NXI and NXII remain unnumbered. The Lincoln Cathedral workshop numbering includes all window openings, whether blocked or not, glazed or unglazed, and include windows not visible from the interior, such as those in the roof spaces. A system of prefixes, more developed than that used by the CVMA, is has been adopted to denote the area of the building in which the window is situated. Where a prefix consists of two or more letters and the first letter is N, S, E or W, this designates a compass point. |
