crown steeple
A crown steeple, or crown spire, is a traditional form of church steeple in which curved stone flying buttresses form the open shape of a rounded crown. It appeared in medieval church architecture in England and Scotland, and reappeared in the 19th century as part of the Gothic Revival.
==Medieval crown spires==
The crown steeple on Newcastle Cathedral, in Newcastle upon Tyne, was erected in 1448 and is possibly the earliest example of this form of steeple. The crown spire of St. Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh, was erected in 1495, and rebuilt by John Mylne in 1648.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=St. Giles High Kirk, Listed Building Report )〕 Another medieval crown steeple was built at King's College, Aberdeen (1500–1509), although this too was rebuilt in the 17th century, after the original blew down.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=King's College Chapel, Listed Building Report )〕 The crown steeple of the Tolbooth Steeple, in Glasgow's Merchant City, was built in 1626-1634 by John Boyd,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tolbooth Steeple, Listed Building Report )〕 and at the time was the only such steeple in western Scotland. In 1698, Sir Christopher Wren added a tower with a crown steeple to St Dunstan-in-the-East, London.
