Lots to see, very historic and surreal. Most memorials can't be read due to age but there's lot of different types and lots of great stories to be read.

Beautiful Cathedral and worth visiting for the history of the building and tower. Very quiet when we visited but the door was unlocked allowing us to look around inside. Remember to walk around the back of the building to see the round tower.

Really enjoyed the look around and it was post-service, so everything was very quiet. I appreicate how colourful the stain glass windows are and the craftmanship that goes into creating them. the tower outside was quite interesting but a shame you can no longer go up it
