Lichfield Cathedral

One thousand three hundred years ago Lichfield Cathedral stood at the centre of the Kingdom of Mercia; it stands still, spires reaching into the sky, at the heart of England; an abiding symbol of the impact Christianity has had on our heritage. Its history is as rich and intricate as its decoration: from St Chad's anointment as Bishop of Mercia in 669 to the damage wrought during the bloody English Civil War to its restoration to medieval glory in the nineteenth century by Sir George Gilbert Scott. 00Dr Jonathan Foyle is an architectural historian, broadcaster, consultant and advocate for heritage sites. His previous publications include Lincoln Cathedral: The Biography of a Great Building, and Architecture of Canterbury Cathedral, (both published by Scala). He also writes for the Financial Times.
