"Winchester Cathedral at Winchester in Hampshire is one of the largest cathedrals in England, with the longest nave and overall length of any Gothic cathedral in Europe."
Built upon a former swamp (and the crypt still floods), Winchester Cathedral was a fantastic stop. When we were there the pipe organist was practicing some really dramatic pieces, so it made the whole experience even better. From the stained stone you can see that water and flooding is still a problem, but all in all it is phoenominal--right up there with York, Wells, and Salisbury.
