    The cathedral is awestrucking when you are exploring it in person. I have been there a few times and I loved it. I hope you enjoyed it

    Absolutely stunning place! I just recently discovered that my 28th great-grandfather, Roger de Pitres, is buried there. He was the Sheriff of Gloucester under William the Conqueror and constable of Gloucester Castle. The workmanship in cathedral architecture is so beautiful it takes my breath away.

      It sure is an amazing place. I must go back and study it more fully!

    Stunning! Incredibly Amazing! Again, love all the layers of history behind the build - but the architecture itself is just astounding!

    That natural sunlight showed it off incredibly well. And as you say it looks better in real life. Great scenes on the camera Richard. Thank you. And thanks to Mark.

    Superb filming Richard, you really captured how beautiful the cathedral is and a really interesting talk with your guide Mark. Never knew about the composer John Stafford Smith of the music to the Star Spangled Banner. Also the lady chapel looked enchanting. A lovely and beautiful cathedtal.

    What a triumph of sound, light, texture and architecture. Although the organ must of made your edit a nightmare, it really added to the ambience.

    build this ??

    What a fabulous, incredible building. The windows, the roof, the monuments - wow! Mark is a very knowledgeable guide. The organ sounds like a mighty beast!
    Good also to see the Hogwarts cloisters!
    Interesting factoid (myth) about Edward II - a lie was started in the 1330s/1340s that he was killed by a red hot poker in a place where no one should have a red hot poker!

      Not really when you consider when the cathedral was built.
