Ripon Cathedral

This slightly unusual view of Ripon Cathedral is take from the delightfully named road Low Saint Agnesgate

 

Ripon is a cathedral city in the Borough of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, it is located at the confluence of two tributaries of the River Ure, the Laver and Skell.

 

The present Ripon Cathedral is the fourth to have stood on this site. Saint Wilfrid brought stonemasons, plasterers and glaziers from France and Italy to build his great basilica in AD 672.
