An elegant construction with a groined brickwork vault/groined brickwork vaulting

To my surprise, my Collins Robert listed this.

Brick arris

"Brick arrises and corner quality

The need for a brick arris to be true and sharp, and for corners to be unbroken, is usually a high priority. For tooled, raked and flush-jointed work, ragged arrises and corners generally detract from the crispness normally associated with polychromatic brickwork."
