Sherborne - Abbey - Fan Vaulting above the quire
Magnificent late C15th fan vaulting above the quire of Sherborne Abbey church. The entire nave roof is also fan vaulted though only its bosses are coloured (see ST6316 : Sherborne - Abbey - Fan Vaulting in Nave ), whereas here above the quire all the panels between the ribs are also highly decorated.
