Eastward of this, on each side, is a similar arch of like dimensions, springing from the same pier. From these, the wings of the transept, corresponding in size and style, branch off to the north and south. In the eastern wall of each wing are two semicircular arches, those nearest the choir being larger than the others, and communicating with the chauntry chapels. At each extremity of the transept is a fine triple lancet window, highly enriched with slender shafts, foliated capitals, and delicate mouldings, and filled with beautiful stained glass. That at the north is of a rich and elaborate mosaic design, with oval compartments, enclosing figures of the Apostles and an escutcheon of the arms of George III., executed by Mr. David Evans. That at the south contains the memorial stained glass to the late Rev. W. G. Rowland, comprising figures of the Virgin and Child, St. Thomas, and St. Bartholomew, under rich florid canopies, with groups of angels above, bearing scrolls with inscriptions. The side walls are pierced with narrow lights, in couplets, in a similar but plainer style; one of which, on the west side of the north transept, contains the Virgin and Child, under a canopy; whilst the corresponding window in the south transept contains the arms of France and England quarterly, and the armorial bearings of the late Bishop Butler, and the alliances of his family. The narrow doorways {71} are semicircular, rising from round pillars with foliated capitals, and enriched with a moulding, consisting of a round branch, swelling at intervals into lozenged panels, charged with roses. Under the triple lancet window of the south transept is a large and bold Gothic monument, in three compartments, to the family of Lloyd, and to the widow of the late Bishop Butler: and around the walls of the north transept are placed the splendid Gothic monuments to THE REV. J. B. BLAKEWAY, [Picture: Monument to Rev. J. B. Blakeway] and the families of Dukes, Parry, and Hughes. The following is the inscription on the former:— TO THE MEMORY OF THE REVEREND JOHN BRICKDALE BLAKEWAY, M.A. F.S.A. THIRTY-ONE YEARS ORDINARY AND OFFICIAL, AND THIRTY-TWO YEARS MINISTER OF THIS PARISH, THIS MONUMENT IS ERECTED BY THE VOLUNTARY SUBSCRIPTION OF HIS PARISHIONERS AS A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT FOR HIS TALENTS, ESTEEM FOR HIS VIRTUES, AND GRATITUDE FOR HIS LONG AND FAITHFUL SERVICES AS THEIR FRIEND AND PASTOR. HE DIED THE TENTH DAY OF MARCH, MDCCCXXVI, AGED SIXTY YEARS. These exquisite specimens of monumental skill, (together with many others in various parts of the edifice,) unrivalled in chaste elegance of design, and richness of execution, are the masterly productions of Mr. John Carline.
