ANTE-CHOIR, the term given to the space enclosed in a church between the outer gate or railing of the rood screen tad the door of the screen; sometimes there is only one rail, gate or door, but in Westminster Abbey it is equal in depth to one bay of the nave. The ante-choir is also called the " fore choir."
