Fix this textRIPON CATHEDRAL, YORKSHIRE
Fix this textRIPON CA T HEDRAL, in Yorkshire, stands upon a site which was
Fix this textfirst occupied by a religious house nearly thirteen centuries ago
Fix this textwhen St. Wilfrid established a church there. The crypt of the Saxon
Fix this textchurch still survives and is reached by descending a flight of steps
Fix this textand passing along a narrow passage. It has a plain barrel roof and
Fix this textmeasures only eleven feet eight, inches; at the east end of the crypt
Fix this textis a narrow aperture, known as St. Wilfrid’s Needle, which, tradition
Fix this textasserts, was used as a test for the virtuous, for only they were able
Fix this textto pass through this recess.
Fix this textMany architectural styles are incorporated in the Cathedral which
Fix this textwas begun in the 12th century and enlarged in the 15th and 16th
Fix this textcenturies. The chief feature of the exterior is the 13th-century West
Fix this textFront, built in the Early English style and the only one of its kind in
Fix this textBritain.
Fix this textThe plain exterior of the Cathedral gives little indication of the
Fix this textlight, spaciousness and beauty of the interior; the nave is exceptionally
Fix this texthigh, and the great East Window is an outstanding example of
Fix this textgeometrical tracery. The carved stalls and misereres in the choir
Fix this textare the work of the 15th-century school of Ripon wood-carvers, and
Fix this textthe library contains a collection of rare and valuable books and
Fix this textilluminated manuscripts; three of the early books were printed by
Fix this textCaxton.
Fix this textRipon is noted for its old-world charm and the ancient customs
Fix this textwhich have survived down the centuries. Here the past and the
Fix this textpresent exist side by side, and each night at 9 p.m. is enacted the
Fix this textold custom of setting the watch. This takes place in the Market
Fix this textSquare when the Hornblower, wearing the traditional green coat and
Fix this textthree-cornered hat, blows one blast on the horn at each corner of
Fix this textthe Obelisk while the curfew bell rings in the Cathedral.
