As detailed above, remains of the Norman building can be seen in the massive <a href="/wiki/Transept" title="Transept">transept towers</a>. By 1160 the nave and west front were complete, and a cloister and <a href="/wiki/Chapter_house" title="Chapter house">chapter house</a> were added between 1180 and 1244. </p><p>During the 1270s, a new project began to replace the entire east end, starting with the east end chapels. This work is documented by a very extensive series of fabric rolls.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Work advanced slowly, with the retrochoir, presbytery and choir being built in the 1290s.

During Master Thomas of Witney's time the east cloister walk was begun (1318–25) and the nave, west front and north cloister walk were probably completed (c.1328–42). That the present west front is on the same site as the Norman predecessor is indicated by the narrowing of the nave bays towards the west, squeezed to meet an existing feature. </p><p>The image screen across the west facade and the chantry chapel of <a href="/wiki/John_Grandisson" title="John Grandisson">Bishop Grandisson</a> located within the west front were probably designed by <a href="/wiki/William_Joy" title="William Joy">William Joy</a>, who succeeded Witney as master mason in 1342 but seems to have died in 1347, possibly from the Black Death.
