The spire may not be as high as Little Nell's Salisbury; Truro Cathedral was not started until 1890 so is comparatively modern - an impressive building nevertheless.

I love Truro cathedral too. I just love cathedrals!
Too bad you couldn't get a better view of it.
Looks awesome! There's nothing in my city half as old that looks even remotely as spectacular.
thank you for stopping by my Blog..those are German uniforms in the pictures.I love your Cathedral pictures...i enjoy visiting Cathedrals and Castles when i visit Germany
Love that 1890 is comparatively modern - in Australia our heritage buildings are much newer :)

Too bad they don't make a camera lens big enough to grab it all.
Great post Bob. Nice pictures. Well there's another cathedral that I've never heard of... I'm going to have to pay it a visit. A very solid looking building.
I love spires, cathedrals and all those majestic buildings. I suppose 1890 is modern compared to the 16oo's, etc. You did get some fantastic photos.
There is a fabulous convent & hospital close to where I live...surrounded by new wings of the hospital and you can't truly appreciate the lovely old architecture of the old buildings. Such is progress, I fear. You did a great job catching good angles of the spires here!
Very majestic and inspiring. Cathedrals surely lift one's eyes upward.

Interior arches are my favorite! And the clouds in the first photo couldn't have been more picture perfect!
A plethora of spires! Must visit it someday.
I like the view looking up the street.
That reredos is very interesting and unusual. Thanks for sharing your photos.
What a stunning cathedral. I can't believe I was so close and didn't go there. I like to imagine it when it was being built and what the surrounding area looked like. Now it's neatly tucked into a side street.
