Longford Cathedral

The photographs posted by James1852 are extremely valuable for all sorts of reasons – inclusing illusrating the kind of fiddling that has gone on with this building.

Here is a photograph of the main door as it was in 2006. Note that someone has inserted a fussy piece of stained glass in the upper part of the door panels. Compare this piece of rubbish with the dignified timber panels behind the group of artists taken on the steps of teh Cathedral in 1925. If it has not been burned, then in the forthcoming restoration, this piece of nonsense will have to go.
