The Chapter House was probably modelled after that
of Westminster Abbey. It was built in the second half of the 13th century
as the meeting place of the Cathedral's governing body. It now houses
one of the four surviving originals of the Magna Carta and other treasures.

Salisbury Cathedral was never monastic but the cloisters,
built in the middle of the 13th Century, are the largest in any cathedral
