The fan vaulting for which Bath Abbey is so famous is not original, but neither is it a 19th century imposition. When the church was restored in the 1860s by Sir George Gilbert Scott he arranged the vaulting of the choir according to the design by William and Robert Vertue, who vaulted the nave of Bath, and the Henry VII Lady Chapel at Westminster Abbey in the early 16th century.
