Lichfield Cathedral
Latest Reviews
We arrived just in time for the rooftop tour, so we quickly booked in. Our friendly guides, David and Don, pointed out some interesting features of the cathedral before we made our way through a door tucked in a corner and up a spiral staircase behind the walls. We emerged in a void between the nave and the roof. The guides led us through the roofspace, pointing out interesting features and explaining the almost-thousand-year history of the cathedral and nearby city. We emerged on an outer gallery, with amazing views over the city and a different perspective of the cathedral. After taking in the views and learning a little more, we returned along the roof of the nave, crossed the central spire, and made our way to the other end of the cathedral roof. We got to peek into several areas not visible from the main cathedral, including a gallery where mediaeval singers would have hidden behind the statues on the cathedral's front to sing on special occasions. The tour lasted for about an hour, and was fascinating and well worth the 8GBP fee. We spent another hour exploring the rest of the cathedral (at ground level), viewing old manuscripts, sculptures and learning the history of the stained glass windows. We were even lucky to hear the choir rehearsing and visiting bell ringers practicing. Definitely worth a visit!

I just love Lichfield Cathedral. Three fantastic spires, amazing architecture, especially the front of the cathedral. Inside, the atmosphere is special,holy. There is lots of history to be found as you walk around inside the cathedral, there is also a very good souvenir shop at the rear of the cathedral.

Lichfield cathedral is one not to miss. Not only does it have 3 spires but the most stunning facade I have ever seen. People rave about the cathedral in Barcelona, this is on an equal footing. Free to get in, personal guides available. Also displays local artists both in traditional mediums and digital mediums - very 21st century. The interior does not disappoint, some great history. Well worth the visit

I visited recently for the first time since my childhood, which brought back lots of positive memories. The Gothic architecture is stunning and I also enjoyed the memorial to the Staffordshire Regiment within the cathedral. The cafe serves good quality fare at fair prices.
