Abstract
As a result of geometrically analyzing the line drawings of the plan of Salisbury Cathedral measured at site by RCHME, the present author inquires into the way of constructing the plan through distributing geometric figures such as equilateral triangles and squares by making use of a ruler or a compass. Although Peter Kidson has already pointed out that the plan has two different standard measures and grids applied to the eastern and western parts of the cathedral, the author proposes a possibility of analyzing the plan by drawing geometric figures, especially considering the building process of the cathedral.
