East end of St Pancras's Chapel, St Augustine's Abbey, Canterbury

Archaeology

The abbey complex of St Augustine, founded by the missionary outside Canterbury's city walls, contained three churches, of which this is the easternmost. The surviving sections, which clearly re-use brick from former Roman buildings, include the complete arch of the east window (though the arch itself is clearly late medieval).
