Saturday 2.

The above photo is of houses, mainly eighteenth century, within the Cathedral Close.


The next two pictures are of a stone arch within the nave of the Cathedral. It is mainly published for the benefit of Crowbard, who has an interest in Green men (or Jack in the Green, etc. etc.). This arch is started at the bottom left by Jack (next picture), and the complete arch is in the picture below. I think it's the most complex, and largest Green Man I've seen.





The next photo is of the central tower of the Cathedral. In 1360 a very tall spire was added, and for two hundred years, until the spire fell, in 1564, it was the tallest building IN THE WORLD (so there!!!!).



Been a very long day today - so -Good night all.
