What reading level is Ely Cathedral book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
* Our survey of the interior would be im- perfect and superficial if this were overlooked. Ely Cathedral was no exception to the rule observed in other great churches subject to the Benedictine monastic system, which placed the ritual choir in the centre of the church, under the lantern, and crossing the transept, as at Westminster Abbey, at Win- chester and at Norwich, and as re-instated in our own day by Mr. Pearson at Peterborough. The vista from the west end would have been broken, in Alan'...s time, by a rood-screen, stretched across the nave at the third bay from its eastern extremity. Careful observers may discover, if they please, on the main pier of this bay, on the south side, a small oblique notch left in the masonry, indicating, no doubt, the place of the newel staircase leading up to this rood-loft ; and the pier has evidently been repaired or made good * See plan in Browne Willis, vol. Iii. , published in 1742.
3 1 Ely Cathedral after the removal of some structure abutting upon it.
