@AlexTheHistoryGuy Hi Alex, I was so happy when you included Erpingham's tomb. My favourite spot in the cathedral. Another great video, thanks for sharing
Thank you :) yes I need to go to the Shrewsbury medieval festival next year to get late 14th century / early 15th century clips if I want to make a video about Agincourt or Thomas Erpingham. The event isn't until next summer so I'll have to wait!
I think you will find Blackfriars hall and St Andrews hall were built at separate times the first St Andrews being almost destroyed by fire in 1413. Then Blackfriars hall was built in 1440 a combination of old and newer buildings which we know today.
I agree that the monastery has had multiple stages of repair and adaptions over time but Blackfriars is only ever a nickname. It refers to the Dominican monks who wore black and hosted Friaries. The actual monastery was dedicated to Saint Andrew which is a very popular saint in East Anglia due to the Saint apparently protecting sailors by calming the waves.
Very Interesting.
Wonderful job Alex. It is a wonderland....so many shapes and odd details. You show it very well. 👍💯
Wow.
I walk by this place all the time. but i haven't been in for years, i should go check it out again one day.
Well I think this is a sign to take another look round haha. I highly recommend the paintings in the Jesus Chapel, they are gorgeous
It's an absolutely beautiful building. I bet you'll find something interesting that you may have forgotten.
@ I think I will next time I hear into the city to get some bits.
Another fascinating and insightful video - Norwich cathedral is a beautiful building and truly unique. Thank you, Alex.
My pleasure, and yes it certainly is beautiful & unique

5:40 you said pipes were installed in the floors. What type of pipe? Water or Sewage?
I'm not sure but if I remember correctly it was water pipes.
@@AlexTheHistoryGuy Thank you.
