Wimborne Minster.

Wimborne Minster.
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 of England. This is made of Dorset Limestone and New Forest Stone to keep it strong.

Nothing of the Saxon church visible from here but I bet it's incorporated into the core of the church. Fine shot!
