Sunset on the 'Cathedral of the Moors'
Image: © FollowMeChaps Taken: 28 Dec 2005
The sun goes down on St. Mary the Virgin church, Yatton. This church was known as "The Cathedral of the Moors". It is of Norman origin, possibly older, but the present building dates from the 1320s. A spire was added to the tower in the 1450s but the top half was taken off in 1595 and has never been replaced.
