Tower and Treasures Tour

A longer tour exploring the grandeur of the cathedral floor with its shrines, wall paintings and medieval architecture combined with a climb of the tower to see the ringing chamber, belfry and views from the roof.  

From the rugged beauty of its 11th-century Norman arches, to the soaring heights of Gothic grandeur, witness centuries of history unfold before your eyes. Delve into a world of stunning medieval wall paintings, sacred shrines, and ancient altarpieces.

After your journey around the interior of the cathedral, 211 narrow, winding steps await you to the top of the only surviving 11th-century Norman crossing tower in the country. Feel the thrill of standing on top of this historic marvel, surrounded by breath taking views and the echoes of the past. Explore the mysterious bell ringing chamber and the hidden corners of the roof, offering panoramic vistas that stretch as far as London.

You'll need a spirit of exploration and a sense of adventure. This immersive tour can last up to two hours, but the rewards are immeasurable.
