Beautiful solution to a structural problem, and done in late 14th century.

My bro lived in Wells for years, kids played on the Cathedral green often. Such a beautiful city. They still have a house there n we visit a lot. This is my niece at 2yrs old (blurry vid screen cap) She turned 10 today. Sang in the Cathedral on the last day of term with her school in the choir too.
It really is. The Bishops Palace is stunning too. I love the town crier lol “Hear ye! Hear ye!” I was amazed when I first saw him lol We’re Scottish so not used to that. Turning up at the market with his outfit , bell and scroll 📜
