The building sequence is based on my on-site analysis of the construction history,
using the techniques developed on the cathedral of Chartres called toichology, and described in a number of publications.
The analysis of some of the smaller churches are more approximate than I would like, and need further analysis.
I have used 'phase' rather than 'campaign' to to identify a contiguous zone with similar elements.
A campaign would be defined by recognisable breaks and construction joints in the fabric: there may be a number of phases within a campaign.
One benefit is that separate programs by subcontractors, such as carvers, may be isolated, which is particularly useful in complex sections, such as portals.
Every phase has been assigned to a decade, so there may be more than one phase in a decade.
While this is certainly imperfect, it will allow us to explore all the data, including costs, across time.
This is an on-going process, so as the data continues to be analyzed, the chronology and costing analysis will be further refined, and the synopsis updated.
Clicking on any of the decade graphics will display all buildings that had work being done during that decade.

aisle capitals, arches and vaults
Rationale for dating : decadic range "The Ark" 1:372

Phase 4 - 1180s - east (g)
gallery and possibly apse window capitals and arches that may have been one campaign from gallery to clerestory walkway.

Phase 6 - 1210s [1212] - nave (a)
Nave aisles in a large number of campaigns; there are five different designs for the plinths of piers and walls, and in the west built the foundations and lower courses for west front, hidden as the present road has been built up, originally not as high, probably with steps at north end.
