The two openings which pilgrims would have used to access and exit the Anglo-Saxon crypt at Ripon Cathedral in North Yorkshire. Dating to 672 AD, the crypt is the only surviving part of St. Wilfrid’s original church. 📸 My own. #SaxonSunday #RiponCathedral
The dramatic roof bosses include the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden.
Worth visiting ⤵️

The ‘Ripon Jewel’ which was found close to Ripon Cathedral in 1976. Stylistically, it probably dates to the seventh century, and can be viewed in the cathedral treasury. 📷 My own. #SaxonSunday #RiponCathedral
Gargoyles on the outside of the cathedral, a beautiful art display with thousands of paper birds, very beautiful decoration inside the cathedral and an incredible stained glass window. With a few local nature scenes too
#ThursdayThrowback to 31st July 2021 and a wonderful day in #NorthYorkshire and Ripon Cathedral. We enjoyed the temporary art exhibition and the incredible interior of the cathedral. A beautiful part of the world. @photohour.bsky.social #riponcathedral
When I visited #markenfieldhall last week, I took the opportunity to visit the wonderful #riponcathedral.
Doing some posh karaoke on Vierne's Messe Solennelle for a trip to Ripon Cathedral at the end of the month.
I'd forgotten how *unbelievably awesome* this piece is!

This poor priest was hijacked from doing his job by my rambling group (didn’t seem too upset though 😂) #RiponCathedral
Thousands of hours, millions of stitches – the Ripon Community Poppy Project is working in partnership with #RiponCathedral for a shared moment of commemoration and celebration to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, #VE80.

![Wikipedia ~ "The Cathedral Church of St Peter and St Wilfrid, commonly known as Ripon Cathedral, and until 1836 known as Ripon Minster, is a cathedral in Ripon, North Yorkshire, England. Founded as a monastery by monks of the Irish tradition in the 660s, it was refounded as a Benedictine monastery by St Wilfrid in 672. The church became collegiate in the tenth century, and acted as a mother church within the large Diocese of York for the remainder of the Middle Ages.[2] The present church is the fourth, and was built between the 13th and 16th centuries. In 1836 the church became the cathedral for the Diocese of Ripon.[3] In 2014 the Diocese was incorporated into the new Diocese of Leeds, and the church became one of three co-equal cathedrals of the Bishop of Leeds.
The cathedral is notable architecturally for its gothic west front in the Early English style, considered one of the best of its type, as well as the Geometric east window.[3] The seventh-century crypt of Wilfrid's church is a significant example of early Christian architecture in England.[3] The cathedral has Grade I listed building status."

There are some 70 angels looking down from on high in the Mediaeval quire at Ripon Cathedral.A few years ago one of the heavenly host fell to earth from the canopy directly above the choir stalls where the lay clerks (adult singers) sit, prompting a large-scale restoration project costing £120,000. Restoring Fallen Angels, in 2019, saw carvings, canopies and misericords restored to their former splendour with centuries of dust and dirt removed. The remarkable carvings, which are of national significance, draw tens of thousands of visitors each year.
Fallen angel.

Ripon Cathedral & Millfield from Bondgate. Here the millrace from High Cleugh Dam joins the Skell just above the bridge. The small arch under the approach to the bridge supplied water to Ostcliff's Tannery (now Skellfield Terrace).

Medieval carving of a monkey on the Mayor's stall in Ripon Cathedral. It is said to have been made as a comment by William Carver, the RiponWakeman, after a dispute with the Mayor. Monkeys were seen as greedy & deceitful.
