The one thing that still stands out for me in the cathedral is the wonderful tones of the pine benches and the ceiling, and the contrast with the stonework. The roof is simply fantastic.
It is a wonder that the ceiling did survive and that some of the more zealous vandals did not take pot-shots at it – as Will Dowsing’s mobs did in many of the churches of Cambridgeshire in an effort to shoot off the angles holding the hammer-beams.
