This striking building is England’s second oldest cathedral. It was founded in 604AD by Bishop Justus, although today’s structure only dates from 1080. The Cathedral is renowned for its Norman nave and crypt, its Romanesque façade, its gothic architecture and its 14th Century Chapter Library door. It is also a place of pilgrimage, although the shrine to William Perth, at which miracles were alleged to have happened, is no longer in existence. Instead, the modern day visitor can retrace the footsteps of the medieval pilgrims by climbing the Pilgrim Steps.
