The choir at Gloucester Cathedral is one of the earliest examples of Perpendicular style. Instead of building from scratch the tracery was built over the existing Norman building. The great East window (Crécy window) was installed in ~1350. At 22m high and 12 m wide was the largest medieval glass window in the world.

Der Chor der Kathedrale von Gloucester ist eines der frühesten Beispiele des spätgotischen Perpendicular-Stils. Man hat Mitte des 14.Jh einfach die bestehende normannische Kathedrale umgebaut, indem man Fenster vergrößert und Maßwerk vor die Wände gesetzt hat. Das Ostfenster (Crécy-Fenster) war damals mit einer Höhe von 22m und einer Breite von 12m das größte Glasfenster der Welt.
