Samsung phone photos of my visit to the Tower of London the 2nd of July 2021. I had to book a ticket on line so booked the first slot at 9am. It was very slow there due to Covid-19 but great to visit without the crowds that would be there from all over the world in normal times. The Tower of London dates back to 1066 with the White Tower being built in 1078. The castle is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Travelled up to Salisbury to revisit the wonderful cathedral. It has the tallest spire in the United Kingdom. I climbed to the top of the spire last time I visited back in 2014. The tower is not open at the moment due to Covid-19 rules on social distancing. Salisbury cathedral is one of our newer Norman cathedrals as it was not built until 1220AD. Sadly the weather today as you can see was cloudy and overcast.

The closest Cathedral to me is Portsmouth Cathedral which was built in 1180AD and paid for my a local wealthy Norman merchant. It has a very interesting history. In 1449AD the Bishop of Chichester was murdered in Portsmouth by sailors so the cathedral was closed and the people of Portsmouth excommunicated!

There was a church on this site when the Domesday Survey was made in 1086, but the current Grade I-listed Church of St Mary dates from the 14th century when the old church was pulled down. It was extensively reconstructed in the 15th century when the nave was widened and raised in height and the great west tower was built. It appears to be a typical "wool church", paid for from the profits from our medieval wool trade. Lightning struck the tower in 1822 and the church was damaged and fell into disrepair. It was restored and re-opened in 1864. In 1940 bombs fell in the churchyard, blowing out most of the windows. It was restored in 1951.
Simon Jenkins considers this to be one of England's Thousand Best Churches.

As described in the Wikipedia, "The Cloisters is a museum located in Upper Manhattan, New York City. It is a branch of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, used to exhibit the museum's extensive collection of art, architecture and artifacts from Medieval Europe. The Cloisters is situated on a hill overlooking the Hudson River, and incorporates parts from five European abbeys which were disassembled and shipped to New York City, where, between 1934 and 1939, they were reconstructed and integrated together with new buildings in the medieval style designed by Charles Collens."
