Salisbury ...........the tallest spire of any church in England [or possibly
the UK]. The cathedral inside and out is awe inspiring. The immediately
surrounding row house residential properties are some of the most sought
after in the nation. Not a place to be missed.
The Dean of Salisbury Cathedral is an [Anglican] lady priest...... perhaps
she is more enlightened about allowing visitors to record their memories on
film or chips free of cost than her society colleagues in the big city!
