Very nice square out the front with lovely old houses. Also has a room for kids to play which is a nice touch and allows parents to look around on their own.

Very large and high, it has three spires. The interior is full of placques to old soldiers and wealthy people, with a bit of information about these people. As you walk around you get the feeling that when this was constructed it must have been an impressive sight due to them doing it all by hand.

Took mum who has wanted to visit for years and we finally got her there. The place is beautiful. Our last visit was 3 years ago for the Xmas tree show. Found the cat and mouse this time :-) . Mum had a great time taking photos and enjoying the beautiful surroundings of the place. Thank you to all staff.

I enjoy photographing Cathedrals and we're working our way round the country slowly ticking them off our list. This time, the last of the "L's" - Lichfield.
Approached from the front, it's breathtaking. Not a huge Cathedral, but unusual in having three spires, being built mostly of sandstone and the statues of saints, kings, bishops and the rest which cover the frontage being in such excellent condition; beautiful work. Most often you see the spaces where such pieces used to be so we were puzzled at first by the full complement - until we found out the Victorians had replaced the old, the damaged and the missing. Good for them. It's an awesome looking building.
Inside, it's graceful and beautifully finished. Some lovely vaulting and glass. Helpful and knowledgeable volunteers on duty, and as luck would have it, I was able to get on a roof tour, which I'd advise anyone to do. It's £8 for a guided tour and explanation of the roof pace and the building techniques used. Excellent! You do need to be able to climb 90 narrow steps in a spiral and to squeeze through some small and awkward spaces, so the large or infirm needn't apply........ I'm 5'10 and 16.5 stone, which works, but if you're 6'2"ish and 20 stone, take some goose grease with you.
I thoroughly enjoyed this visit. The Cathedral - and indeed Lichfield itself - is beautiful and rather charming.

Sis and I do enjoy travelling to Lichfield Cathedral, by train, to experience the Choir sung Evensong. Magic sounds reverberating around the Cathedral.
Not many here today but ot means we could sit inches away from the choir. What dedication the choir have as they always seem to be the same faces, even the tiny angelic boys are always there.
