NOTES: Construction on the cathedral began in 1096 in the Romanesque style, and the body of the church was completed by c. 1145. But later additions were in the Gothic style. The nave and chancel with its ribbed stone vault was added from c. 1472-1499 under Bishop Goldwell (replacing an original timber roof). The clerestory was added at the same time and the spire was completed in 1485. William Inglott was a lay clerk and organist. The painting shows two members of the choir holding a wreath of bay, a song and an hourglass, standing by Inglott's effigy, with a depiction of skulls and Fame above.
