The gargoyles, although they should be termed chimera as they do not shed water from the upper levels of the Minster, are found at the eastern end of the building. There are some troughs for shedding water from the central tower but they appear to be basic open-topped channels.
These chimera are carved from stone and are mounted in pairs to maintain symmetry at the base of the pinnacles at the east end of the Minster.
