Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
In adopting this extension of the term Gothic so as to apply it to the whole style, it may be requisite to distinguish between round arched and pointed - arched Gothic, or, as it may be more succinctly ex pressed, between the Round and Pointed styles.
Whatever term we use, this is indispensable; for Durham and York, Spires and Cologne are buildings of the same class, and must be regarded as belonging to one style: the mere introduction of the pointed arch is too trivial a difference to make such a separation as has hitherto been assumed to exist.
