Extraordinary

Magnificent inside and out. Never tire of standing outside and looking at the Kings and wondering on the sheer skill of those many, many workers that must have worked on them for generations. A must see if you are in the Midlands

Beautiful Cathedral

The only UK cathedral with 3 spires ("The Ladies of the Vale"), Lichfield Cathedral is a must visit if you find yourself in Lichfield. There has been a cathedral here since 700 AD - you can sense the history all around. A beautiful space inside...More

I recently enjoyed a visit to this beautiful cathedral and was very impressed with internal and exterior architecture. Am I correct in observing that the apse/ choir part of the building is slightly out of line with the nave and is there a reason for this? Thank you
