It's The "Crown Of Somerset'
One of the most imposing churches in Great Britain Is the 700-year-old Wells Cathedral in Somerset. There has been a church in Wells since the 12th cen- tury. The cathedral took 100 years to build and was completed in the 13th century. It is the most complete example of what an ecclesiastical city was like when the
Church ruled the world.
