Canterbury Cathedral

At the start of our week in Kent we looked at the weather forecast and it did not look good, lots of rain most days. However, by carefully planning our different destinations we managed to avoid the worst of the wet conditions with the exception of Tuesday, so that was the day we decided to visit Canterbury Cathedral. The Cathedral is undergoing a lot of major work both inside and out at the moment, this work will be going on for the next four years, behind the scaffolding and building works the fabric of the building is beautiful.

This candle burns in memory of Thomas A Becket, it marks the spot of his martyrdom.

Amnesty International's candle burns perpetually.
