Behind me was a pretty spectacular blue leaded glass window, which cast against the right wall. There's a small entrance fee for the cathedral, but it's well worth it and as a bonus they made no issue about tripod use. Chester cathedral is a Grade I listed building. The cathedral, typical of English cathedrals in having been modified many times, dates from between 1093 and the early 16th century, although the site itself may have been used for Christian worship since Roman times. All the major styles of English medieval architecture, from Norman to Perpendicular, are represented in the present building.
