Canterbury Cathedral
World Heritage Site

It is one of the oldest and most famous Christian monument in England. It has a lenght of 157 m and 3 spires. Tower height is 72 m, tower height is 58 m. The cathedral has a total of twenty one bells (cast in 1981) in the three towers. The heaviest bell weighs 1.72 ton. The ringers practice on Thursday at 7.30 pm. The oldest bell in the cathedral is Bell Harry, cast in 1635, and is struck at 8 am and 9 pm to announce the opening and closing of the cathedral.

Much of the cathedral's stonework is damaged and crumbling, the roofs are leaking and much of the stained glass is badly corroded. The closure of parts of the cathedral would be seen as a significant loss of part of Britain's architectural heritage.
