More about this scene
The route leaves Newark and heads six miles west to the small and delightful town of Southwell, whose minster church had been founded by the Archbishop of York before AD956. The Archbishop's Palace partly survives. The present minster church, which dominates the town, was begun in about 1108, and the Norman nave, transepts and west towers survive. The Norman east end was rebuilt later in the Middle Ages. The minster became a cathedral in 1884. In this view from Westgate the conical trees survive.
