In my words.

I was travelling to see my friend John Phillips when the tower at Howden caught my eye from the Ouse bridge. It was a beautiful autumn day, and I had time to stop. The ruined east end rose above the rooftops and pulled me into the town.

John had taught me to look beyond the grand view and notice the marks, surfaces and small lives within a building. At Howden I tried to keep both ways of looking in mind. There were angels and open arches, a familiar gate, and light inside the church. Later I stopped for coffee and took out my sketchbook.

The ruined chancel and chapter house date from the fourteenth century. The western part of the Minster remains a working parish church. From above, the contrast is especially clear: roofs shelter one part, while the tracery and arches of the east end frame daylight.
