The Dom Timeline


Pre 1674 Tornado


This was how it looked before the Tornado struck. Notice the absence of butresses on the nave section.



Post 1674 Tornado


The Tornado took away most of the nave roof and a whack of the walls. The wreckage remained for around 150 years before being finally cleared.



1820



The ruins were finally cleared away and the space between the belltower and the transept is now an open square.
