Music events of an evening, church services of course but also a quiet place to just be.

Lichfield Cathedral: When Three Spires is Just Being Greedy<br>​★★★★★ (Five Stars, but mainly for commitment to being very, very old)<br>​Lichfield Cathedral is, without a doubt, a masterpiece of mediaeval architecture and an utterly brazen display of over-achievement. While most cathedrals are content to offer a polite, single spire, Lichfield insists on giving you three—a triple-threat of holy Gothic dominance known locally, and rather sweetly, as "The Ladies of the Vale." It’s like arriving at a party and discovering the host is wearing three diamond necklaces.<br>​The first thing you’ll notice is the age. This place is so old, the stone remembers when central heating was just a flickering candle and a prayer. It’s an excellent place to feel immediately underdressed and slightly inadequate about your life choices. You, a mortal who struggles to remember where they left their keys, are standing beneath the silent judgement of 800 years of structural integrity.<br>​The Exhibits: Ghosts and Angels<br>​Inside, the light is glorious, streaming through stained glass that tells intricate biblical stories, often interrupted by a slightly abstract patch of Victorian restoration that looks like a 1980s computer graphic.<br>​The star attraction, however, remains the famous Lichfield Angel. Discovered buried under the floor, she is eternally enshrined and forever posing for her divine close-up. She serves as a poignant reminder that even in the 8th century, people were worried about their posture. She’s definitely worth the trip, though I’m still deducting half a star because the sheer historical weight made me spill my emergency coffee.<br>​The Practicalities of Piety<br>​For those worried about the lack of modern amenities, fear not. This ancient house of worship is perfectly balanced by the necessary presence of a well-stocked gift shop. Here you can buy a commemorative fridge magnet of a gargoyle staring existentially into the middle distance, ensuring your spiritual journey ends with an affordable transaction.<br>​The overall experience is one of sublime, breathtaking wonder, tempered only by the slight draft and the unavoidable thought: "How long did this take to dust?"<br>​Final Verdict: Go, be humbled, and then go straight to the nearby pub to warm up. They clearly spared no expense on spires, but heating budgets seem to have been tight since the 13th century.

Très jolie cathédrale. Malheureusement, les murs sont très sombres et mériteraient une rénovation mais bien entendu, c'est un budget!<br>Mais ça vaut le détour.
