The eighth window is a memorial to Rev. John Luxmoore, D.D., who, after
being Dean of Gloucester from 1800-1808, was Bishop of Bristol, later of
Hereford, and finally of St. Asaph, where he died in 1830.

The ninth window is a memorial to the Ven. Henry Wetherell, B.D., a late
Prebendary of Gloucester, who died in 1857.

The tenth and last window in this alley is by Clayton & Bell, and is in
memory of Rev. E. Bankes, D.C.L., late Canon of the Cathedral, who died
in 1867.

"At the north end of the east alley of the cloister, and almost
concealed by the later panelling, is an Early English doorway
opening into a vaulted passage or entry, chiefly of the thirteenth
century. This entry passes between the east gable of the frater and
what I have suggested may have been the common house-garden, and
leads straight into the infirmary cloister. The passage is covered
by a stone vault of four bays, supported by heavy moulded ribs
springing from corbels. The south half of the passage is 6 feet 10
inches wide, but the northern half of the east wall is set back so
as to increase the width to 7 1/2 feet. This passage was lighted in
the first bay by a single light with trefoiled head, with very wide
internal splay. In the wider end were two other openings now
blocked. That to the north had a transom two-thirds of the height
up, above which the rear-arch is moulded, while below it is plain.
The other is not carried above the transom level, and the sill has
been cut down and the opening made into a doorway into a house
outside; in which state it remained until within the last forty
years. That some thirteenth-century building stood here seems
evident, and the upper half of the north opening was clearly a
window above the roof to light that end of the entry.

"The north end of the entry opens directly into the east alley of
the infirmary or "farmery" cloister, which is built against the
north side of the east end of the frater." (Hope.)

#North Alley# (east to west).--This "north alley" was closed at both
ends by screens, and must therefore have had some special use. From
analogy with the arrangements at Durham there can be little doubt that
this alley was partly appropriated to the novices.... We have cu
