The main body of the cathedral was built between 1093 and 1130, with alterations and additions made in the 13th and 15th centuries. The crossing tower has two stages with pairs of tall openings on each side and a stellar vault. Surrounding the tower is a gallery resting on large corbels with a parapet of pierced quatrefoils. There is a door with a crocketed gable and a blind arcade of paired arches within crocketed gables.
