Guide
Not neededGo on your own

Climb the tower before the midday heat, and carry small notes: the church office often cannot change a large one for the ticket. On a clear morning the view west runs across the Great Sound to Dockyard.

Visiting

One hundred and fifty five stone steps climb from the nave to the roof. At the top, Front Street lies to the south, the North Shore to the north, and the Great Sound opens to the west as far as Royal Naval Dockyard.

Back in the nave, find the ornate wall behind the altar with its sculptures of Christ and several saints. Then look at the stained glass and the arches around it.

Know before you goThe cathedral office on 441-292-4033 gives the tower hours, so ring it when you plan the climb.
