to five times a week in the Cathedral. The Cathedral Songmen and Student Songmen sing with both the
boys and the girls.
Organ
The original organ was a Father Willis of 1877. This had to be replaced in 1966 by N P Mander. A

Building
The building dates from a Norman church of 1101 but a new church in the Perpendicular style was
completed in 1430. Its particular features included 7 altars, a central tower and spire and a fine
hammer beam roof. In 1880 a major re-ordering was undertaken which included a West door and the new
North & South Transepts. The Cathedral was enlarged in the 1960s. There is a fine peal of 12
bells.
