St Albans Cathedral is reputed to have the longest nave in Britain, and it is certainly an impressively long building stretching 1/6 mile from end to end.

The rounded Norman arches and pillars, built of recycled Roman brick, were originally on both sides of the nave.

They were extended westwards by Abbot John de Cella in the Early English style, but the south side pillars collapsed during a storm in 1323 and were replaced by more elaborate columns in the Decorated style.
