Description: | View of Hereford Cathedral in Hereford, western England. A church was first built on this site in the 7th century by Bishop Putta of Rochester. The church was destroyed in the 11th century sacking of Hereford and a new church was begun by Bishop Robert de Losinga. The north transept (the transept intersects the main cathedral at the point where the chancel joins the nave, creating a crucifix shaped building) was built in the 13th century by Bishop Peter Aquablana whose tomb stands inside. The north transept also houses the tomb of St Thomas Cantilupe, a 13th century Bishop who performed many healing miracles. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Publisher: | Jukes, F. | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Dayes, E. | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
