Cathedral of St Andrew, St Andrews

The Cathedral of St Andrew (often referred to as St Andrews Cathedral) is a ruined Roman Catholic cathedral in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. It was built in 1158 and became the centre of the Medieval Catholic Church in Scotland as the seat of the Archdiocese of St Andrews and the Bishops and Archbishops of St Andrews. It fell into disuse and ruin after Catholic mass was outlawed during the 16th-century Scottish Reformation. It is currently a monument in the custody of Historic Scotland. Quoted from Wikipedia.

I believe the roof has collapsed too, however the remains are very interesting.
All the best

1158, it's amazing Joe! Definitely built to last, if it had not been for the reformers!
Superb shot. Cheers, Rosa.
