Bill Bryson to quote says "this is the best cathedral on planet earth" It sure is the finest Norman Cathedral built.Started in about 1093 and still standing.It stands on a hill in the middle of the city and is virtually surrounded my a horseshoe river which was a good defence in the days of trouble.Photo was taken from South Street--that expensive property I told you about in my door knocker photos.The view perhaps explains one of the reasons why.
