Parcloses (or Percloses)
is an architectural term applied to enclosures, railings, or screens, such as may be used to protect a tomb, to separate a chapel from the main body of the church (especially those at the east end of the aisle); also to form the front of a gallery, or for other similar purposes. It is either of open work or close. A distinct chapel is often formed in this manner, e.g. a chantry chapel. (See CHAPEL).
