As it stood in 1450
What St Albans Cathedral looked like in its prime.
A long cruciform church of mixed stone and flint: a warm honey-coloured stone west façade with three deep arched doorways and a large traceried window above, flanked by short turreted towers; long aisled nave with a clerestory and repeated buttressed bays in flint and stone; a massive square, multi-stage brick crossing tower rising above the centre with battlements; low-pitched roofs and a broad grassed forecourt with simple iron rail.
