Fix this textpHICHESTER CATHEDRAL in
Fix this textSussex is renowned for its 3elJ Tower,
Fix this texta massive work of Perpendj|^lar style,
Fix this textand the only existing English "example of
Fix this texta detached bell-tower. It was built in
Fix this textthe 14th century to relieve th load on the
Fix this textcentral tower, where the peat jf bells was
Fix this textfirst housed. The earliest j L the bells
Fix this textdates from 1583, and carcj seen by
Fix this textclimbing the .120 ft. tower, Iron, which an
Fix this textextensive view of the city and surround-
Fix this textings is obtainable.
Fix this textThe cathedral, which dates from the
Fix this text11th century, stands at the point where
Fix this textChichester's four principal streets meet
Fix this textat right-angles, just as they have done
Fix this textever since the city, then known as
Fix this textRegnum. was laid out by the Romans
Fix this textnearly 2000 years ago. Ihroughout the
Fix this textRoman occupation it was one of the
Fix this textprincipal military and trading centres in
Fix this textBritain; and there in the fifth century
Fix this textthe Saxon invaders came sailing up the
Fix this textnearby creeks, stormed the city and
Fix this textrenamed it after Cissa, one of the leaders
Fix this textof the invasion.
Fix this textIn its first century the cathedral was
Fix this textmore than once badly damaged by fire.
Fix this textIt also sustained damage during the
Fix this textReformation and during the Civil War,
Fix this textbut it still possesses the same charm that
Fix this textcharacterises the city as a whole, and it
Fix this textdisplays several features of unusual
Fix this textinterest. It is also the only cathedral with
Fix this textmodern corbels (on the south side),
Fix this textrepresenting 20th-century clerics, and
Fix this textwith King George V in their midst. The
Fix this textinterior contains some remarkable
Fix this textRomanesque sculpture. To the south
Fix this textof the cathedral are the cloisters, the
Fix this textBishop’s Palace and the secluded lawns
Fix this textand precincts, above which the towers
Fix this textand spire of the great church rise to form
Fix this texta striking architectural group.
Fix this textThroughout the Middle Ages the
Fix this textcathedral attracted many pilgrims, who
Fix this textcame from all parts to visit the shrine of
Fix this textSt. Richard, a 13th-century bishop whose
Fix this texthumble life and strength of character
Fix this textwere in many ways reminiscent of St.
Fix this textFrancis of Assisi. His healing powers
Fix this textwere known far and wide, and though
Fix this text700 years have passed, his fame still
Fix this textattracts pilgrims to the great church
Fix this textwhere he presided and where he is
Fix this textcommemorated.
Fix this textFor the lover of Georgian architecture
Fix this textthere can be few towns as delightful to
Fix this textwander in as Chichester. Many of the
Fix this textstreets have remained virtually
Fix this textunchanged since the 18th century, and
Fix this texteven the modern buildings, such as the
Fix this textnew County Hall, blend harmoniously
Fix this textinto the general picture of this perfect
Fix this textEnglish cathedral-city.
