Portsmouth is my closest cathedral but Winchester is only 20 miles away. <br /> <br /> The Cathedral Church of the Holy Trinity, Saint Peter, Saint Paul and Saint Swithun, commonly known as Winchester Cathedral, is the cathedral of the city of Winchester, England, and is among the largest of its kind in Northern Europe. The cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Winchester and is the mother church for the ancient Diocese of Winchester. It is run by a dean and chapter, under the Dean of Winchester.<br /> <br /> The cathedral as it stands today was built from 1079 to 1532 and is dedicated to numerous saints, most notably Swithun of Winchester. It has a very long and very wide nave in the Perpendicular Gothic style, an Early English retrochoir, and Norman transepts and tower. With an overall length of 558 feet (170 m), it is the longest medieval cathedral in the world. With an area of 53,480 square feet (4,968 m2), it is also the sixth-largest cathedral by area in the UK, surpassed only by Liverpool, St Paul's, York, Westminster (RC) and Lincoln.<br /> <br /> History<br /> Though churches were recorded in Winchester as early as 164, the first Christian church can be traced back to c. 648, when King Cenwalh of Wessex built a small, cross-shaped building just north of the present building. This building, known as the Old Minster, became the cathedral for the new Diocese of Winchester in 662, a vast area stretching from the English Channel to the River Thames, the bishopric having been transferred from Dorchester on Thames, Oxfordshire by Bishop Wine. The design of this early church cannot be confirmed, for no trace other than ground plan exists today, but Wolstan mentions a gateway tower situated some distance from the west end. Wine died in c. 672, but one of his later successors, Swithun, would become one of the most famous Bishops of Winchester.<br /> <br /> Whether Swithun himself oversaw any expansion of the Old Minster is unknown, but it is recorded in Acta Sanctorum that from 963 to 984, Bishop Æthelwold greatly expanded the church, the works being finished by the following Bishop, Alphege. The church was rededicated in 993, and consisted of a central tower, north and south aisles, transepts, crypt and an apse, and was briefly the largest church in Europe. Also on the site was the New Minster, in direct competition with the neighbouring Old Minster. The New Minster was begun by Alfred the Great but completed in 901 by his son Edward the Elder. These two monasteries existed side by side, the monks becoming virtually intertwined with one another. Swithun's body, which according to his wishes had been buried in the graveyard outside the church, was brought inside and housed in a magnificent shrine.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/juliamaudlin/">juliamaudlin</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/juliamaudlin/55055218337/" title="Stone garden sculpture set against a dense green hedge, film 2000, Bodnant Garden, Tal-y-Cafn, Conwy, North Wales UK"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55055218337_228d478e4a_m.jpg" width="160" height="240" alt="Stone garden sculpture set against a dense green hedge, film 2000, Bodnant Garden, Tal-y-Cafn, Conwy, North Wales UK" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/bubbahop/">bubbahop</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/bubbahop/55056414545/" title="2025-112734"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55056414545_2362dcf0c4_m.jpg" width="240" height="135" alt="2025-112734" /></a></p> <p>London, England-Wembley Park (&quot;A Guiding Light&quot;, features 36 seven-meter-tall banners and twinkling overhead luminaries for Christmas)</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/bubbahop/">bubbahop</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/bubbahop/55056064781/" title="2025-112742"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55056064781_77918f6837_m.jpg" width="240" height="115" alt="2025-112742" /></a></p> <p>London, England-Bratwurst from vendor at King's Cross Christmas Market</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/maleny_steve/">Serendigity</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/maleny_steve/55056240954/" title="Mythological Scene"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55056240954_1979fa3f7e_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Mythological Scene" /></a></p> <p>In the Victoria &amp;
