In 1326 he was working at the palatine chapel of St Stephen, Westminster, when he possibly designed the timber vault erected by him in 1345–8; in this year he was also employed at Caerphilly Castle, where he probably roofed the remodelled hall.

Stylistic features such as the ogee-lobed quatrefoils and the linking of windows and panelling by mullions show Hurley’s awareness of the innovations made by masons working at the chapel of St Stephen.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Abbey of Saint-Denis
Many kings and princes and other noble persons were buried there and three of the Roman pontiffs stayed in the abbey at different times: Stephen II in 754, Innocent II in 1131, and Eugenius III in 1146.

After the Council of Trent the Abbey of St-Denis became the head of a congregation of ten monasteries, and in 1633 it was united, with its dependent houses, to the new Congregation of St-Maur, when its conventual buildings were entirely reconstructed.

 Medieval Sourcebook: Life of St. John the Almsgiver
John once received relics from Jerusalem of Stephen, the first martyr, and of James the brother of our Lord; so he built a chapel in the name of this first great martyr and having made a list of all his belongings he generously dedicated them to this chapel.
John, the all-holy Patriarch (Papas), when he had arrived at Constantia paid reverent worship to the relics of the saints there, namely, Barnabas, the all-praiseworthy apostle, and Epiphanius, the great miracle-worker, and afterwards went on to Amathus and it was from there that he departed to be with his beloved Lord.
For John's father, Epiphanius* (=Conspicuous) by name, did so many 'conspicuous' and remarkable things in his life in accordance, we may say, with his name that he was chosen by the rulers of that time to be entrusted with the reins of government in the island of the Cyprians.
