Photo of Worcester Cathedral |
The cathedral is set in a lovely location in the centre of the city. Access is easy with nearby paid and free parking. |
A slightly different way to look at the lovely tower. No, it isn't a sudden eclipse, this is the way old selenium toned black and photos would have looked. |
Statues occupy niches outside the south portal |

Beautifully carved, painted tomb, of a style common in the 16th and 17th centuries |
The Moore Monument, early 17th century. The monument does not identify the figures, but they are likely that of John and Anne Moore and their children. |

Crest on the tomb of Bishop Edmund Freake, bishop of Worcester, (d. 1591). This is one of the very earliest examples of a signed tomb. The craftsman was Anthony Tolly of Worcester (1546-94) |
