Considering the vast amount of beautiful Norman pieces in Britain and Italy still surviving, should this article not have a gallery? Or a link to a Commons page? Or at least lists of links to the relevant articles where the images can be found?Srnec21:08, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the photo of the so-called Norman roof truss from the Gallery. The truss in question is in a house in Louisiana dating from 1740 and therefore well outside the historic period (and geographic area!) under disussion. The term "Norman Truss" refers to a construction method introduced to America from Normandy, not by the Normans. As it was also common in other parts of NW France it is something of a misnomer.
