This print from the Historic England Archive showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Worcester Cathedral and its surroundings. Taken by the talented photographer Harold Wingham in September 1951, this aerial shot captures a unique perspective of both the medieval cathedral and the urban landscape it resides in. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly Worcester Cathedral, with its magnificent architecture standing tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The intricate details of this medieval masterpiece are brought to life through Wingham's lens, showcasing its grandeur and historical significance.
