Best Answer

Archbishops were each based at an important cathedral which had private chambers attached for the use of the archbishop.

In the case of Archbishop Becket at Canterbury, there was a great hall, chamber, oriel, chapel and kitchen attached to the west end of the cathedral, with stairs and a corridor leading directly into the cloister and the cathedral itself.

An "oriel" was a private hall or chamber on the first floor, above the great hall.

These buildings would have been furnished like a palace and probably with painted designs all over the interior walls and ceilings.

Sadly no trace of these buildings remains today.
