To the extent that French motifs would be employed at Lincoln Cathedral, such as the sexpartite vault, they are subject to extreme revision, and rendered unrecognisable. Nevertheless, the sexpartite vault, elevation scheme, bundled shafts, and experimental spatial relationships of Canterbury are continued at Lincoln. The dematerialisation is reminiscent of the ambulatory of Abbot Suger at St Denis north of Paris, where arcade walls are replaced by thin arcade shafts. The Abbot Suger is believed to Lincoln Cathedral is the Cathedral Church of Saint Mary in Lincoln.
As it is generally agreed that the vaulting was later than the rest of the chapter house, perhaps during the bishopric of Grosseteste, flying buttresses on the exterior were much later, built to shore the vaulting following the experimental use of the umbrella column. At Wells Cathedral (pp. 124, 144, Cathedral Church of St Andrew in Somerset, begun by Bishop Reginald Fitz Jocelin, or Lombardus, in 1176), the nave, choir, transepts, and west front are roughly contemporary with the major building period of Lincoln Cathedral, between 1176 and 1240.
