Ion of them tends to increase one's wonder that they should not be found
more frequently. In the first place it is possible to get a continuous,
uniform, stretch of vault, the roof being broken by no central tower.
Also the plan is simplified, and nave and choir have more architectural
continuity. Again, by building transeptal towers and discarding the
usual central tower, the interior escapes a danger it is often hard to
overcome, the difficulty of holding up the central tower. It is quite
possible that Warelwast was far-seeing enough to anticipate this
trouble. The histories of other cathedrals prove it to be a very real
one. In 1107 the tower of Winchester fell in. At Salisbury the spire is
still a constant source of anxiety, despite "a complex arrangement of
iron bands and ties," which has been reinforced more than once. The
tower of Chichester collapsed in 1861. There is a legend of the fall of
a central tower
