Back to Rutherford’s ‘London’. Dedicated to the apostle, the first church on the site was in 604 and after the Great Fire, Christopher Wren built a masterpiece. Inside & out it is a wonder how it could be built without modern equipment. The dome caused a bit of controversy at the time as some felt it too Papist. There are no photos allowed inside as it is a working place of worship so go online to see it’s magnificence. The tomb of Lord Kitchener is on the left immediately upon entering as is a small chapel open to all for prayer & meditation. To enter the rest of the Cathedral there is a fee to offset the £7 million it takes each year to maintain. There is no state funding.
