On Sunday, 28th September, Salisbury Cathedral celebrated 800 years to the day of the dedication of the first three altars and the completion of the East End.
Over 300 people attended the special Evensong service, which ended with the congregation following a procession of the choir and clergy to the Trinity Chapel at the East End, where an anthem was sung by the Cathedral choir and prayers were said at the altar.
As well as the Evensong service, the Cathedral library saw over a thousand visitors over the course of the week for the exhibition, Salisbury Cathedral: A New Beginning, which contained a variety of items from the Cathedral archive including a piece of carved stone from the Beauchamp chantry chapel, which was attached to the East End but demolished in the 18th century, and some of the original medieval floor tiles.
