Durham Cathedral
DURHAM CATHEDRAL is regarded as the finest Romanesque building in Europe. In an online poll held by the Guardian in 2011 to find Britain's favourite building, Durham Cathedral enjoyed a runaway victory. Along with the neighbouring castle it was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986 - one of only two English cathedrals to hold such an honour.
It is at once spiritual, powerful and poetic, the mystic heart of the North East. Many superlatives have been heaped on this magnificent church, standing high above the ancient medieval city, on its protective peninsula formed by the River Wear. Built by the Normans to house the shrine of St Cuthbert, and also containing the shrine of St Bede, the Father of English History, its inward beauty matches its exterior.
The first impression of the nave, on entering at the west end, is both incomparable and unforgettable. This book is a journey
