Southwell Minster (06). Nottinghamshire. Aug 2023

I initially visited Southwell Minster in hope to photograph the Super Blue Moon with the building a beautiful backdrop. Sadly the Moon was not visible. Undeterred, I took several night shots of the minster.

Southwell Minster here in Southwell, Nottinghamshire, is a superb example of both Romanesque or Norman and Gothic architecture.
Construction of the current church building was begun circa 1108. It's a is a Grade I Listed Building. The Architect was Ewan Christian. Southwell Minster has 3 Towers and 2 Spires.

On 5 November 1711 the southwest spire was struck by lightning, and the resulting fire spread to the nave, crossing and tower destroying roofs, bells, clock and organ.
