Re: Today in pictures
Here are some pictures from our very damp trip to Chester yesterday.
Thankfully it does not rain inside the Cathedral...so if ecclesiastical architecture does not float your baot...it's just too bad.....you will have to be satisfied with coffee and a couple of slices of cake(very fine it was too)
1) an ornate ceiling boss(got a crick in my neck capturing these.)
2) Stained Glass window.
3) another ceiling boss.
4) Mary and the child
5)Detail on the richly decorated ceiling.
6) The Cathedra. To be a Cathedral, there has to be a throne for the Bishop...this is it.
7) the vastness of the Cathedral
8) Haven't a clue who these figures represent...but we have affectionately termed them 'Art, Bart and Fargo.
9) Yum...afternoon tea(coffee too)
10) The altar in the cathedral.
