Description
The height of St Mary's Cathedral (Sydney) ceiling is 22.5 metres.
The columns of the main arcade are of the same warm sandstone as the exterior and interior walls, which has also been used in the vaulted ceilings of the side aisles and chapels. The roof is of red cedar, that of the nave being of an open arch-braced construction enlivened by decorative pierced carvings. The ceiling of the chancel is vaulted in timber, and the roof of the nave is of double hammerbeam construction. Looking up towards the ceilings, the visitor will notice many more of the saintly heads first seen on the outside walls.
Inside St Mary'sAs is usual in Gothic cathedrals, St Mary's has three levels of arched openings along its length: the high arches of the main arcade, the gallery-like openings of the triforium, and the windows of the clerestory
