Tea with the Bishop

It started off badly with rain and then for some reason I couldn’t get breakfast!! No idea why I will find out when I wander to dinner.

It rained all day and you’ll see some rain spots on one or two photos SOB!!

So Wells Cathedral. It’s a tadge impressive. Unfortunately no flash in the Quire/choir which was “challenging”









cadavaer tomb
















The Bishop’s Palace. A nice cup of tea btw.









641 St James Cameley.






642 St Mary Magdalene Chewton Mendip







643 St Michael Compton Martin






644 St Michael Brent Knoll.





Oh the bloke doing breakfast never showed. Apolpgies and they’ll knock it off the room.

  1. Wonderful photos. The last time we were there there was a private service starting so we didn't get to see inside. but we had a wander around the old town and Vicars close.

  4. WELLS IS A GREAT PLACE.
    STUNNING STAINED GLASS.

    IT'S AMAZING TO THINK, WITH 'PRIMITIVE' METHODS, OUR ANCESTORS COULD BUILD SUCH BEAUTY. OUR GENERATIONS WILL LEAVE VERY LITTLE, IF ANYTHING,TO THERE STANDARDS.

    Wells Cathedral is very nice. I agree about it being challenging inside without flash. I have some similar photos, but I don't think I ever posted them on my blog.
