Restored stonework at Chichester Cathedral

After many years of painstaking work the stonework of Chichester Cathedral is starting to look really good.

As with many cathedrals, it has sometimes seemed that Chichester Cathedral has been permanently covered in scaffolding while centuries of grime have been removed from the stonework. The Caen stone from which the Normans built the huge cathedral is fairly soft and erodes easily - this means that maintenance of the stonework is a demanding and perpetual task.

Now that the work at the eastern end of the Cathedral is becoming complete, the Cathedral Green and West Street is becoming a really attractive part of Chichester , popular with students, office workers and shoppers alike.
