Abstract
Publishes measured drawing of all the stones in the floors of the Trinity Chapel and the Corona Chapel as they are today. Careful examination of the floor areas provides a greater understanding of the shrine of S. Thomas à Becket for which this area of the cathedral was designed. Identifies the kinds of stone used and their provenance and reconstructs the three steps of the podium for the shrine (circa 1213-20). -- AATA
