make your own.
The cathedral’s three spires lift the eye above the roofs of the Close. Its reddish sandstone gives the Gothic forms their warmth, while trees, gardens and the sweep of the pool connect this great building to the city around it.

In my words.
I love the way Lichfield changes as I approach the cathedral. The houses of the Close set up the Gothic forms beyond. I once followed the sound of evensong along those streets. On another sunlit visit it was the door’s ironwork that made me put down my camera and simply look.
Here, the three spires belong to the whole pattern of the city. The view moves from individual roofs and garden walls to the cathedral, then out across the water. Looking at the small things can open up the larger place.
From a door to a city.
Lichfield is the only surviving English medieval cathedral with three spires. Its Gothic building was completed around 1340, suffered severe damage during the Civil War, and was later restored. The city’s history also lives at hand height, in the swirls and hammered details of a door.
