Took advantage of the dry day today to bag a couple more.
First stop was wakefield. The cathedral is slap bang in a pedestrian area and the front is being worked at. So thankfully the little 125 was easy to push to the front.

Wakefield cathedral.

Next up was Sheffield. A short blast down the M1 slip-streaming truckers
Not straight forward to get at but at least no pushing required.

Made our way down to Salisbury now. So as well as doing the full guided tour of the Cathedral and dealing with the parking police we managed to get a few pics.

Glastonbury Abbey is not an easy place to get close to.
Big high wall around to old Abbey etc.
I think J K Rowling visited here before she penned Harry Potter.
Some very strange people and shops in the town

Ok Jimbo
Here you go with the tenth.
The list states Truro Cathedral Shop. So I took one of the entrance to the shop/cafe.

But I think it looks better from the front. Once you find a way to get there that won't get you arrested.

So a little more pushing did the trick. Hard to get much closer
