Is it the bricked up Norman doorway that was found during the renovation of the Crypt?

Sorry if I wasn't clear.  Right cathedral, wrong part of the cathedral - ie not the Gundulf.

You don't say whether Gundulf Tower or not?

It is close to the North choir aisle of the Cathedral..... What they think was the first floor original entrance was blocked off and was on the West Wall of the Tower
It was possibly a bell tower but then thought to be a strong tower for defence purposes?

Right building, wrong part thereof.

There were i believe 3 entrances to Gundulf Tower and the first on the West wall may now be sealed off.... or one of the two later ones are?

I was just about to give the clue "ecclesiastical structure", so I guess that answers your question.

You do have to sign in to see them and they are automatically there but small.
Click on the picture and it enlarges
Apart from that.... that is it

Oh sorry Dave have just seen your post.


The pictures just appear for me  and I'm like you , an ignoramus when it comes to computers. Best to ask Stuart I think or one of the other men who post frequently.
Hope you do get them , I hop in and out most days for a peep. x

My first though was Rochester High Street, but then I thought about the chain.  I've walked past it (when that was still an option) on my way from a parking space to the St. Gregory's Centre for Music.
Here's the next one.  Getting the building is the bare minimum, but why are those stairs walled off and where in the building is it?
