A fascinating trip to Gloucester Cathederal. There were two tours with our very own Stewart Aylward as our guide. Stewart is an official guide and regularly shows groups arond. Firstly to the top of the tower, a total of 269 steps! Stopping on the way up to see and hear the St Peter’s bell strike 11.00am – it was loud! Then to the ringing chamber and belfry. Finally to the top where we were rewarded with fine views acroos the city. The second tour was in the cathederal where we learned about the construction of the building through the centuries and the history. Stewart certainly has an incredible knowledge of this place. A super lunch afterwards at the Fountain Inn.
