Description

LONDON, ENGLAND - JUNE 26: A view of the nave is seen from the Triforium in Westminster Abbey on June 26, 2009 in London, England. As part of the Abbey's '2020 Vision' development plan the public will be invited to comment on a proposal to construct a crown like feature on the lantern roof in place of the current small plain pyramid structure which was built in 1958 to repair bomb damage from World War II. Through the centuries the Abbey's architects have put forward various schemes for this unfinished part of the Abbey, but none of these have been taken up. Also announced today are plans to open the upper gallery, known as the Triforium, to provide public access and to house a new museum and exhibition space. A lift to take visitors up to the Triforium, an education centre and a cafe are also being proposed. (Photo by Peter Macdiarmid/Getty Images)
