Did medieval stone masons travel?
Yes, they had to travel in order to find work. Master Masons were highly skilled (and highly paid) craftsmen who were in great demand all over Europe, but they worked in a dangerous environment: following a major fire at Canterbury Cathedral (Christ Church Cathedral Priory) in 1174, a French Master Mason named William of Sens travelled to Canterbury to begin rebuilding the choir. He later fell from scaffolding and was very seriously injured; he may have been paralysed. The work on the Cathedral was then completed by another mason known only as "William the Englishman", who probably travelled from some other part of the country. Master Masons would not only be responsible for overseeing the building work, they often drew up plans and created the master drawings for the shapes of stones used in columns, arches and other areas - much like a modern chief architect. Under them would be large teams of masons and assistants.
