Wimborne Minster

Wimborne Minster
Wimborne Minster is a market town in East Dorset and the name of the Church of England church in the town. This is a Saxon church, with Norman and Gothic architecture. It is famed for its chained library and the tombs of King Ethelred, the brother of Alfred the Great, as well as the tombs of John Beaufort, Duke of Somerset, and his duchess, the maternal grandparents of King Henry VII. This is made of Dorset Limestone and New Forest Stone to keep it strong.

Many thanks for your kind comments Fabio. I prefer to see the architecture of such places rather than the interior in many cases, but I think I will go inside this one the next time I am there.
All the best, Rosa.

Very nicely composed Rosa, I like the fact that it was a wet day. The water on the path and roofs adds a little something to the image.
