Winchester Cathedral, Your Bringing Me Down You Stood and You Watched As My Baby Left Town

The west front of Winchester Cathedral with the Christmas market on the pavement. Winchester, dedicated to The Holy Trinity, St Peter, St Paul and St Swithun is one of the largest cathedrals in England and has the longest nave and overall length of any Gothic cathedral in Europe. Originally founded in 642, the present cathedral was started in 1079 and was consecrated in 1093. The design is typically Norman cruciform with a squat, square tower at the crossing.Each Christmas a market is held with stalls around the cathedral close together with a skating rink.

The Norman tower of Winchester Cathedral which sits squarely at the crossing point of this beautiful old building. It was typically Norman (and Saxon) to build their great churches in this cruciform plan with a central tower. Here we can see the round-arched Norman windows in the belfry and the transept. The nave windows are of later perpendicular design. The cathedral as we see it dates from 1079 - 1532 and replaced two previous Saxon Minster churches.

The Sun shines through an arched walkway along the edge of Winchester Cathedral.

By the Priory Gate to Winchester Cathedral sits this beautiful Medieval group of buildings. On the left is Cheyney Court which dates from the C15th and was once the bishop's court house. It has a mellowed stone ground floor and fine half timbering above with diamond-paned windows. The building next to it was the Cathedral's stable block. Winchester is an ancient city with many similar buildings - and was the capital of Wessex - and England. A digital drawing from my original photograph.
