Title:
Norwich Cathedral
Description:
This is the cathedral at Norwich in the UK which is the first part of a series of films which I have prepared on this city. The sheer size of Norwich cathedral bears witness to the impact made on the City by the conquering Normans. Following their victory at Hastings in 1066, the Normans quickly stamped their dominance over their new kingdom by building scores of cathedrals and monasteries as well as hundreds of parish churches and castles. Norwich Castle was completed by 1075. In 1094 the seat of the East Anglian bishops was moved from Thetford to the fast-expanding city of Norwich. In 1096, laid the foundation stone at the eastern end of the new Cathedral and an immense building project was begun. Even today, the size and grandeur of the Cathedral creates feelings of awe and wonder. To eleventh and twelfth-century citizens of Norwich, the building must have appeared incredible a sure sign not only of the greatness of God, but also of the power and permanence of the Norman invaders. Please also see my website and blogs which contain information about where this was filmed and some of the background: http://www.pbn.com.pl and http://www.ceepackaging.com
