high chancel
Isaac Kremer/ September 9, 2018/ / 0 comments
The central or principal part of a chancel in a large church where there are aisles or a deambulatory. The need of the term comes from the confusion between the use of choir, chancel, etc., to denote particular sacred enclosures, and the use of the same terms to denote the entire easterly division of the building. (Jones, 1992)
