Description
Canterbury Cathedral is one of the oldest Christian structures in England. It was founded by Augustine in 597 A.D. Having been destroyed by fire in 1067, it was completely rebuilt. Further fire damage resulted in major reconstruction in 1174. The cathedral became a place of pilgrimage after Thomas Becket, the archbishop of Canterbury, was murdered in the cathedral by knights of King Henry II, on 29th December 1170. During the late 14th Century,Geoffrey Chaucer wrote The Canterbury Tales, which is a collection of stories told by jovial pilgrims, as they made their way along The Pilgrims Way, from London to Canterbury.

Gloucester, Gl - United Kingdom
lovely church painting - this makes the cathedral feel very rural, quite different to its location in the centre of the town. I rather prefer it this way!
Rosemary Colyer replied:
Thank you Andy! I have lots of connections with Canterbury, so this is how I remember the cathedral.
