Worcester Cathedral

Worcester Cathedral is an Anglican house of prayer in Worcester, England, arranged on a bank sitting above the River Severn. It is the seat of the Bishop of Worcester. Its official name is the Cathedral Church of Christ and the Blessed Mary the Virgin of Worcester. The present house of prayer church was worked somewhere in the range of 1084 and 1504, and speaks to each style of English engineering from Norman to Perpendicular Gothic. It is celebrated for its Norman sepulcher and one of a kind section house, its uncommon Transitional Gothic bayous, its fine woodwork and its "lovely" focal tower,which is of especially fine proportions.

The house of prayer's west exterior showed up, with a picture of Sir Edward Elgar, on the invert of £20 note issued by the Bank of England somewhere in the range of 1999 and 2007, staying available for use as legitimate delicate until 30 June 2010. The Cathedral was established in 680, with a Northumbrian cleric, Tatwine, designated as its first religious administrator. Tatwine kicked the bucket before he could be sanctified, nonetheless, so his successor Bishop Bosel might be viewed as Worcester's first serving bishop. The principal house of prayer church, committed to subside. Subside and Paul, was worked in this period, yet no remaining parts of its design survive. The tomb of the present-day house of prayer dates from the tenth century and the season of St Oswald, Bishop of Worcester.
