WORCESTER CATHEDRAL,  

WHERE KING JOHN’S EFFIGY  

RECALLS HIS EVIL REIGN  

THE city of Worcester stands beside  

the River Severn, and its name is  

famous throughout the world, not only  

for its magnificent Cathedral, but also  

for its products, which are household  

names.  

The huge west window of Worcester  

Cathedral overlooks with benign grace  

the well-known cricket ground on which  

it is the habit of visiting Test teams to  

open their season. From the top of the  

Cathedral tower Charles II watched the  

final defeat of the Royalist forces in  

1651,.-two years after the execution of  

his father, whose cause Worcester was  

the first to support and the last to  

relinquish.  

The Cathedral had monastic origin  

in the seventh century, but the oldest  

parts of the existing building date from  

1084, since when it has acquired many  

additions, suffered much wanton destruc-  

tion and pillage by soldiers of the  

Parliamentary army in 1642, and it has  

undergone considerable restoration.  

Outstanding features of the interior  

which shows many architectural styles—-  

Norman, Early English and Perpen-  

dicular —are the beautiful Perpendicular  

North Porch the magnificent chantry  

of Prince Arthur who, had he lived,  

would have barred Henry VIII’s way to  

the throne; the delicate Worcester  

Crucifix of 18th-century Italian work-  

manship and the tomb of King John,  

shown in the accompanying illustration.  

This elaborate tomb, which stands in the  

Presbytery, is surmounted by an effigy of  

the King. He was born in 1166, the  

youngest son of Henry 11. He succeeded  

to the throne in 1199, and his tyranny  

at home, coupled with the defeat of his  

forces at Bouvines (1214), and the loss  

of Poitou aroused the barons to revolt.  

On June 15, 1215, they forced the King  

to grant Magna Charta, the first  

declaration of the rights of the citizen.  

No. 309: the Homeland Series by the House of Seppelt.
