Lancing College Chapel
Lancing College Chapel is the chapel to Lancing College in West Sussex, England, and is considered one of the finest examples of Gothic Revival architecture anywhere.〔http://www.lancingcollege.co.uk/709/life-at-lancing/chapel〕 The chapel was designed by R.H Carpenter and William Slater, and although building work stopped in 1977, the chapel remains unfinished.〔http://www.lancingcollege.co.uk/2954/life-at-lancing/chapel/friends-of-lancing-chapel〕
==Architecture==
Lancing College Chapel is one of the tallest interior vaulted churches in the United Kingdom. The apex of the vaulting rises to 90 ft (27.4m) above the floor.〔http://www.visitworthing.co.uk/what-to-do/lancing-college-chapel-p45563〕 The original plans called for a tower at the Northern Side. The foundations, which were laid but not used, would have raised the height to well over 300ft (90m). The chapel design is based on 13th Century English Gothic, with French influences. It follows a standard English Gothic plan, with a triforium and a very high clerestory. The French influences are noticeable not just in the massive clerestory, but also in the apse and the massive rose window on the West End - the largest in the United Kingdom.
The chapel is open daily and attracts thousands of visitors every year. It is open from 10am to 4pm on Mondays to Saturdays, and 12pm to 4pm on Sundays.
