Must See Sights and Landmarks in Edale Area

"One of Manchester’s oldest buildings, the cathedral is a must-see for anyone with an interest in architecture. Wander around at your own pace, book onto a tour to find out more about the building’s history or keep your eyes peeled for news of one of the occasional gigs hosted inside the cathedral."

"As one of Sheffield’s only grade I listed buildings, the Sheffield Cathedral in the city centre is indeed a building of special interest. The construction of a church on the site of the cathedral began in the 12th century, and the cathedral itself was slowly constructed over several centuries. Part of the church has stones dating back to the 13th century, while the lantern tower’s glass panes are examples of abstract art from the 1990s."
