St Andrews Cathedral by leffe3
St Andrews cathedral was vast. What is left of it today signfies this - the largest building in Scotland by a very long time. Combining the tower from St Rule's Church (at the time of its completion in the 12th century the biggest in Scotland) and the precinct walls down by the harbour, the site is magnificent. Completed in the 13th century, the Cathedral fell into decay following the Reformation in the 16th century, only the towering East Limb, the Processional Entrance and the South Wall of Nave remain 'vertical' (along with the older tower from St Rule's). But foundations, an extensive graveyard (graves from 16th century onwards), parts of the chapter house as well as the museum in the vaulted undercroft can still be explored.
