The 13th century font at Peterborough Cathedral. The bowl is made of Alwalton Marble - marine limestone that was quarried at Alwalton, some five miles west of Peterborough. 📸 My own. #FontsOnFriday #PeterboroughCathedral

I met some lovely fellow needleworkers at Peterborough Cathedral today. They are working together to create a needlework panel based on the 13th century painted ceiling in the nave.

Beautiful Peterborough Cathedral. It was initially an abbey church which became a cathedral following its dissolution in the orders of Henry VIII. The first Bishop of Peterborough was John Chambers, who was also the abbey’s last abbot #peterboroughcathedral #peterborough

King Henry VIII issued Letters Patent converting the former Benedictine Abbey of Peterborough into a cathedral. John Chambers ex-Benedictine abbot then became bishop.

Mary Queen of Scots was buried at Peterborough Cathedral following her execution in 1587. Although she was later moved to Westminster Abbey by her son, James VI & I, her original burial place is still marked at Peterborough #peterboroughcathedral #maryqueenofscots
