In the centre of @stdavidscathedral.bsky.social is tomb of Edmund Tudor "father and brother to kings".
Hear about why it is here, was it his 1st tomb? what it's made of.

When we stripped the altars in @stdavidscathedral.bsky.social for Good Friday, five previously unoticed crosses were spotted on altar stone in current Trinity Chapel. They probably pre-date the current cathedral, which was started in 1180s.

I spot my favourite 1588 Welsh Bible! Given to Westminster Abbey Library by Rev William Morgan at the end of its printing which Morgan oversaw, while staying with his Welsh friend Gabriel Goodman, Dean of Westminster.
Thank you for keeping it safe.

Chwarae teg!
William Morgan wanted this one to be kept on the shelves of Westminster Abbey Library, in addition to all the ones around churches across Wales. Those have all been well used. The Abbey Library copy is in better condition & survived well ... as William Morgan seems to have intended.

Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas Becket murdered during a service in his cathedral.
What has that got to do with @stdavidscathedral.bsky.social? Why did Henry II visit here after the murder?
