Originally the walls of the Abbey would have been whitened and coloured in red lines with rosettes. A fragment of this design was seen in the early 20th century, hidden behind a blocked recess at the end of the wall passage in St Nicholas's chapel.

The most important wall paintings in the Abbey are from the late 13th century i.e. the figure of St Faith in her chapel and the figures of Christ with St Thomas and St Christopher in the south transept. The series of 14th century paintings of the Apocalypse and the Last Judgement in the Chapter House are the most extensive.[2]
