A
modern
cathedral
built
in
the
centre
of
an
already
thriving
town
is
never
going
to
have
much
space
around
it.
This
is
a
perfect
example.
You
cannot
get
very
far
away
from
the
building
to
appreciate
its
architectural
lines
and
styles.
You
are
constantly
looking
up
to
its
upper
lines
and
towers
with
a
craned
neck!
Entry
is
paid
for
via
a
donation
box
(cards
accepted)
Inside
is
pleasent,
but
devoid
of
many
characteristics
of
a
city
cathedral
like
local
families
histories
and
large
tombs,
old
books,
large
paintings
and
many
other
local
points
of
interest.
The
combined
choirs
were
practising
for
a
concert
when
we
were
there
which
made
it
really
nice
looking
around
accompanied
by
the
'heavenly
voices!'.
They
were
good
and
I
saw
that
some
of
them
had
been
in
King
Charles
Coronation
in
May'23.
Well
done!
An
interesting
point
was
that
they
actually
allowed
dogs
to
come
in
to
the
building
freely
(on
leads
and
well
behaved
if
course),
but
I
have
never
seen
this
in
a
cathedral
except
for
specific
animal
services.
Considering
this
was
on
a
hot
day
in
Cornwall-
I
could
see
many
had
picked
up
on
it
to
bring
their
dogs
into
a
'cool'
building.
But
the
idea
to
accept
them
is
well
conceived
as
pet
owners
are
mostly
more
responsible
visitors
than
many
I
have
seen
in
many
⁹institutions
like
this.
I
know
some
of
these
points
may
sound
odd
to
some
as
I
really
enjoyed
my
visit
(june'23),
but
sometimes
it
is
the
side
issues
that
add
or
detract
for
the
visitors.
