Wells Cathedral and its Grounds

Wells Cathedral is the only cathedral in England that still has a Vicars Close and Bishop's Palace intact so they claim. This makes it a must-see and a will-see, as it rises above the town and is visible for miles! The most distinctive thing about this cathedral is the scissor arches in the transept. These modern-looking arches were built in the 1300s to stabilise the structure after a heightened tower was added, and they face north, south, and west.
