The Bishop’s Chapel adjoins the Bishop’s Palace:
Bishop Burnell’s chapel, built between 1275 and 1292, is filled with light by tall windows in all four walls. Here the medieval bishops’ households met for formal prayer, led by their own chaplains and priests.
I look at dates and think there only our native people was here.
Coffee is on
The native people lived more simply than we do but the knowledge is amazing and they left historical treasures of their own if only we know how to look.
I seem to remember there is such a lot to look at in the Bishop’s Palace – another visit is called for after the summer
There is a lot of interesting things to see in and around the Bishop’s Palace.
Lovely. It looks so cool, calm and welcoming inside.
It is an open and airy space, quite modern in some ways.
Wells is certainly one of my favorite places to visit in the UK. I like the massive cathedral, the town, but most of all Vicar’s Close. What a neat place!
This vicars close is fabulous, when I stepped into it I felt like I had stepped back into a different era
it does look rather spacious and well illuminated, CP. you have shown off the exteriors nicely too
Thanks Ayush
