Portsmouth Cathedral or the Anglican Cathedral of St. Thomas is a medieval church located in Old Portsmouth. Granted cathedral status in the 20th century, this historic attraction has witnessed Portsmouth's most turbulent events.
Built in the 13th century, the Royal Garrison Church was struck by a bomb in WWII. Although the roof was never rebuilt, you can still visit beautiful stained glass windows, chancel, interesting memorial plaques and the choir stalls.
Winchester Cathedral is a fabulous sight situated on a site which has housed a Christian church ever since the 7th century. Outside Winchester Cathedral, you'll see lines in the ground which mark the spot where Old Minster once stood. Old Minster contained the shrine of St. Swithun, a bishop of Winchester who died in 863.
