Chesapeake Mill in Wickham, England. The five main spine beams to each floor, the floor joists, the roof timbers and most of the window lintels are of American longleaf pine from the ship.
There is probably more original wood from the USS Chesapeake in a building in Wickham, Hampshire, England than the amount of origninal wood in the USS Constitution in Boston.
The Chesapeake Mill was built of wood from the ship when she was sold and broken up in 1819.

View of the nave of Norwich Cathedral from the west end looking east. The ash grey medieval arcading is articulated by a striking vaulted ceiling pinned with stone bosses that seem to go on for ever
π· Taken with the tilt shift lens: The magnificent Romanesque nave at Norwich Cathedral is crowned with a later vaulted ceiling that has one of the most remarkable series of bosses depicting scenes from creation to the last judgement.
