WELLS

England’s smallest city is also one of its most picturesque and evocative. It is dominated by a magnificently ornate and detailed Gothic cathedral and associated ecclesiastical buildings. The cathedral’s west front, for example, has no less than 386 niches containing a phalanx of medieval sculptures featuring saints and kings. Within are a remarkable ‘scissors vault’ and a 14th century clock on which knightly figures regularly do battle.
