EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Bangor Cathedral, North-West Wales, 1879" Bangor Cathedral, an ancient place of Anglican worship, stands proudly in the heart of Bangor, Gwynedd, North-West Wales. This magnificent edifice, captured in this 1879 photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the rich history and architectural beauty of this spiritual landmark. The cathedral, dedicated to St. Deiniol, was founded in the 6th century by St. Deiniol, a hermit and bishop. However, the current structure dates back to the late 14th and early 15th centuries, with later additions and restorations. The cathedral's exterior is a harmonious blend of Gothic and Perpendicular styles, with intricate stone carvings, pointed arches, and tall, slender windows. The photograph reveals the cathedral's impressive facade, with its tall, imposing tower and ornate, arched entrance. The surrounding landscape, dotted with trees and lush greenery, adds to the serene and picturesque setting. The cathedral's close proximity to the Menai Straits and the Irish Sea further enhances its beauty and historical significance, as it has served as a vital link between Wales and England for centuries. Bangor Cathedral is not only a place of worship but also a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Wales. Its ancient walls hold stories of the past, while its vibrant community continues to celebrate the present and look towards the future. This photograph serves as a reminder of the enduring power of faith and the beauty of history, inviting us to explore the depths of this ancient place and the stories it holds within its walls.
