Canterbury Cathedral and Precincts [13]
A view across Green Court, looking towards numbers 22 to 26 The Cathedral Precincts. These buildings were originally some of the office buildings of Christchurch Monastery - the bakehouse, granary and brewery. They are now part of King's School. The cathedral of the Archbishop of Canterbury, leader of the Church of England and symbolic leader of the worldwide Anglican Communion. The original church on the site was one built for Roman Christians. Constructed mainly of Caen stone under a lead roof, the present building is a mixture of styles from the 11th century to today, but mostly from 1175-1184 and from the late 14th/early 15th century. The southwest tower dates to 1434, the northwest to 1841. The central tower was built in 1503. There is a fine early Romanesque crypt. The cathedral is listed, grade I, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1336823 and part of a World Heritage Site with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1000093 Canterbury is a small historic city on the River Stour in Kent, some 54 miles southeast of London. Occupied since prehistoric times, it became an important Roman city. In 672, the see of Canterbury gained authority over the entire English Church. After the murder of Archbishop Thomas Becket at the cathedral in 1170, pilgrims from all parts of Christendom came to visit his shrine until the Dissolution. Today, Canterbury is a popular tourist destination and one of the most-visited cities in the United Kingdom. The city has a substantial student population, with four university campuses.
