^{page 131 note 5} Some holes in the main rib of the vaulting were un- covered during recent cleaning. The holes had been filled with lime and hair, probably under the surveyorship of Sir Christopher Wren.

^{page 131 note 6} There is a contemporary list of relics in the middle of the fifteenth century in Flete's, JohnHistory of Westminster Abbey (written between 1420 and 1465), ed. by Robinson, J. Armitage (C.U.P., 1909), pp. 18–20Google Scholar, 68–73.

St. John Hope, ‘The Funeral, Monument, and Chantry Chapel of King Henry the Fifth’, Archaeologia, vol. lxv (1914), and the Deposition of Witnesses concerning the sepulture of King Henry VI (West.

Scott, ‘partly demolished’, Gleanings from Westminster Abbey, p. 59; he later revised this opinion and thought that the shrine had been completely dismantled, Personal and Professional Recollections, p. 284. Lethaby, first displacement westward at building of Henry V's chantry; second displacement when coffin was replaced in Feckenham's time. There is no evidence of the first displacement suggested, nor would there have been any need to move the shrine when the chantry was built.

^{page 136 note 1} These are the tombs of John and Margaret de Valence, 1277 (Lethaby, Westminster Abbey and the King's Craftsmen, p. 317).

^{page 136 note 2} The tomb's present position is on the south side of the Confessor's Chapel between the tombs of Edward III and Richard II.

^{page 142 note 3} In the rearranged form of the shrine the one existing column was too short to fit. The large twisted columns would also be too short and any capital they supported would, if in scale with the columns, be too wide to fit under the projection of the inscription course.

^{page 146 note 1} The only authority for this inscription is Richard Sporley (monk at Westminster, 1429–90), who wrote a history of the abbots and priors of Westminster Abbey (B.M., Cotton MS. Claud. A. VIII) based on Flete but occasionally expanding his text. See Flete, op. cit., pp. 31 and 114 n. The inscription is quoted in Lethaby, Westminster Abbey and the Kings’ Craftsmen, p. 321.

^{page 152 note 1} The recent restoration of the canopy took approximately two years.

^{page 150 note 2} The manufacture of glass for mosaics was a closely guarded Venetian secret, and it is improbable that it was known in England. As the glass would have had to be brought from Italy it makes its use unlikely had the canopy been constructed in the time available. See W. Scott, ‘Medieval Fabrication of Materials for Glass Mosaics’, Journal of the R.I.B.A. iii, 516.

^{page 153 note 2} Benedetto da Rovetzano was working in England from 1521 onwards. In 1524 he began Wolsey's monument at Windsor. In 1526 he made the altar of the Lady Chapel at Westminster Abbey. There is a style attributed to Rovetin zano in which the motif used in the canopy appears. See John Pope-Hennessy, Victoria and Albert Museum Catalogue of Italian Sculpture, vol. 2. Cat. entry 424. See also object no. 5959 of 1859.

^{page 154 note 1} Philippus Sculptor is likely to have been the principal carver; J. H. Harvey, Dictionary of Medieval Architects, pp. 207–8. Don Ernesto de la Orden has suggested (in a lecture to the Cambridge Antiquarian Society, 1963) that Philippus is Felip de Vigarny, the famous Spanish sculptor of Burgundian origin. The model is built to a scale of 1½ in. to I ft. with pieces corresponding to the actual pieces of the shrine. The model is demountable and the photographs illustrate the sequences of dismounting and rebuilding of the actual shrine described in the text.
