Continuing our visit to Peterborough Cathedral...
 |
Well, Mary Queen of Scots was buried here, by Old Scarlett,
but her son, James I, had her moved to Westminster Abbey |
 |
The Hedda Stone, kept near the altar, a relic of the earliest abbey on the site,
Medeshamstede, dated to 870 CE; shows people with halos |
 |
| Rare dorsal view: more halos |
 |
Katherine of Aragon definitely is buried here; flowers still arrive daily from the
Spanish embassy |
 |
Peterborough's clock, a relative youngster compared with
Wells or Salisbury |
 |
| A few images from the painted ceiling...there are scores |
 |
| Peterborough main square outside the cathedral grounds |
 |
| Many pretty, mostly Georgian sights; ignore the cell tower... |
