Salisbury Cathedral

Salisbury Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral in Salisbury, England, noted as a leading example of Early English Gothic architecture. Built mainly between 1220 and 1258 with its tower and 404 ft spire completed by 1330, it forms a cruciform plan with an extensive cathedral close and named interiors including nave, cloisters, chapter house and choir. The building houses long-lived fittings and historic objects and has been the focus of long-term restoration.

As it stood in 1330

The shape it held in its prime.

A unified Early English Gothic cruciform cathedral in pale, weathered Chilmark stone with a very tall, slender masonry spire rising from a square tower; steep lead roofs cover the nave and transepts; buttressed aisles and tall lancet windows puncture the walls; the west façade is a screen-type composition with stair turrets, a gabled central section and rows of shallow niches; the building sits within a wide grassy close, the spire dominating the skyline.
