This eleventh century Norman building is perhaps the finest in the country and was one of Britain's first World Heritage sites. Construction began in 1093 and was completed in the thirteenth century with the later addition of the crossing tower in 1487.
Patrick Parsons is involved in the ongoing engineering and restoration works to the cathedral and its associated buildings in order to help preserve the quality of one of the region’s most recognisable and cherished buildings.
