On our way to Bath, our next stop en route to Scotland we dropped in to visit Winchester Cathedral. The Beatles song of the same name, made this beautiful cathedral a memory of the 70's.

Looking up from the front doorway. Winchester Cathedral has its origins in the 7th century, when a Christian Church was first built on this site.

Stunning, that is all I could say.. a real must visit spot for me, this was my second visit to this cathedral, I visited this back in 1998 while on a trip to visit Adina in Cardiff.

Tribute to the Ghurkas, the fierce fighters of renown.

Jane Austen is buried here

Begun in 1079 in the Romanesque style, this Cathedral is at the heart of Alfred's Wessex and a diocese which once stretched from London's Thames to the Channel Islands
