The cathedral is situated in the centre of Gloucester off Westgate Street. Worship continues daily with sung evensong most days. The impressive nave has massive Norman pillars. From the nave move to the famous fan vaulted cloisters where scenes from the Harry Potter films were shot. Other features worth finding are the clock in the north transept, the tombs of Edward II and effigy of Robert Duke of Normandy.

 

The Choir boasts a fine set of misericords. The organ screen bears the fine organ with its painted pipes. Leading from the ambulatory, behind the high altar, is the Lady Chapel with its minstrels' galleries and music chapel.
