An ancient tiled floor described as the "finest medieval tile pavement surviving in Devon and Cornwall" has been revealed for the first time in decades.
The floor has been uncovered as part of planned renovation work to the Cathedral. It is in a room above a Chapel, which in the Middle Ages was used as the Exchequer and in the 20th century as the Song School for boy choristers.
The decorative tiled floor has intricate patterns and was laid in the late 13th century.
The nearest similar medieval floor is in Winchester Cathedral.
