of Sunday services are sung by one or other of the choirs.

There is also a mixed adult Chamber Choir that sings sporadic

Building

The present building, which became a Cathedral in 1919, dates back to

1458 with the Nave arcades.

The perpendicular tower was built in 1508, whilst the exterior of the Nave,

with its Gothic style main porch, was rebuilt in 1830.

There is a William Morris window in the North Ambulatory.
