Salisbury and Stonehenge Cathedrals


Well I guess the Druids or whoever used it thought Stonehenge was a cathedral and it remains impressive in its own way. Got in for free using our National Trust cards - doubt I would have stumped up the 6.50 pounds fee otherwise which is a shame as it reeks of history even if we know little of it. Nice patch of countryside too. I liked sharing it with the sheep.
Salisbury Cathedral was massively impressive. I remember reading The Spire by William Golding and wanting to see it. No fornication in my visit, however!
Due to a parking blunder on my part we did not have time to linger inside - next time I will drive up to its doors and stay for half a day. The rest of the town is lovely as well with its narrow, traffic choking gates.
Stay tuned for more photos.

Pity about the absence of fornication!
