This lecture introduces the Tracing the Past research project and shares some of its key findings in relation to Wells Cathedral. • https://www.tracingthepast.org.uk • / medievalvaults • https://sketchfab.com/LivUniArch/coll... • Some of the most remarkable features of medieval works of architecture, particularly greater churches and cathedrals, are the ribbed vaults spanning their interior spaces. For over nine hundred years, they have inspired worshippers and visitors alike, their eyes drawn heavenwards by these captivating constructions, prompting the question ‘How did they do that?’ No corresponding texts or drawings survive but digital methods now enable us to propose answers. The Tracing the Past project at the University of Liverpool, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, has spent the past seven years recording and analysing vaults in England.
